Holga-ga-ga

No Valentines treats today I’m afraid,

It’s not that I hate it, I’m neither here or there when it comes to these sorts of things, but I tend not to make a big thing of it either.

I will be spending the day tidying my room, floating around in my new maxi skirt and watching Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy with some friends.

Also here are some of my Holga shots. 

I didn’t get round to scanning them so I took photos of them instead.

Some are from New York, some from Brighton, some from Bonfire night, and then general outings.

I do quite like how they turned out, but I probably will stick to 35mm for general use, and have these everynow and again as the development cost me £9 and the film isn’t all that cheap either, and all you get is about 12-16 shots.

Fun Things

So I’ve posted two ePortfolios, and I’ll be doing a few more posts for it soon. I have to do it so I can send the link to a University once they are all up :) Also they make for interesting posts, I like to look back at the work I’ve done.

In other news I bought myself a new camera.

It’s a compact digital camera and it was an absolute bargain!

I wanted to get one for a while, because I have my DSLR and I have all my film cameras, but I don’t really have anything decent for general on the go picture taking, nights out, etc.

Then I went to work yesterday and there it was.

We had a lot of last year models that weren’t selling, so they all got reduced to £35.

Craziness.

It’s an awesome camera, and it’s also very pretty looking.

I’ll do a proper review on it once I’ve had it for like a week or something, but for now I’ve got analysis to write up!

Bye :)

New Years Eve

Taken with my SLR, using a flash with colour gels.

Awful focus in some photos owed to consumption of alcohol.

Fun night, no fun at work on New Years Day however.

Now to do some work, play with my new sewing machine, and ignore the fact I have an interview in 3 days.

Hello 2012!

New York in Photos-Film!

So I got all my film developed.

Warning, this post will have a ton of photos...

I’m very in love with how some of them turned out, some look better in person rather than scanned in, but they still look pretty awesome, I’ll do a few posts explaining how I got some of the effects soon.

Bye :)
