Round #2 of shooting with a Holga, this time in Downtown Cincinnati. Last round I wanted to make sure I got some shots so I taped everything and used the insert that came with it. This time I took more risks so I removed the insert to get the random hard vignettes in the corner. I also untaped most of it to see if I could get some cool light leaks. And I went for some more dramatic light situations. The results were better but I did end up losing 5 of the 12 shots in the process. It’s kind of weird because it seems I might have one of the few well-made Holgas out there because there weren’t too many crazy things that happened.
Ilford HP5 PLus, ISO 400, B&W, 120 film, shot @ 6×6:
I love the juxtaposition of of old and new here.
Went for a portrait of a parking lot attendant but as you can see the light inside the booth was not good. The sun flare is pretty cool looking though:)
- Held the shutter open a few moments here to get the ice skaters’ motion. Not sure if it translates but the washed out look is super hip.

Dude, these are even better than the first round! LOVE the slow shutter on the skaters… Seriously looks like a photo from the 1920′s or something. LOVE IT! Great job!
