Salt Lake City through a Holga Film Camerawritten by dav.d

Imperfection, thy name is Holga!

I received a roll of film back from the lab (they forgot to make prints) and they had the developed film scanned to disk. I’ll pick up the prints tomorrow. And I am really enjoying the photographs that are created with my imperfect film camera. Yes, right now it is a toy – but it is camp, it is old fashioned, and it has it’s own character.

You can even seen that the camera has developed some light leaks – there is some red light that is getting through on the top left and there is some white light on the top right. I might have to seal the camera up with tape to minimize the light leaks – but I also like them. If I wanted perfection I would be shooting digital.

I think I need to have a spin with my medium format camera next – I haven’t shot with the Bronica for a few weeks and I don’t want to get rusty. Maybe after the Sundance film festival – cause I won’t have much time photographing while Sundance is in full swing.
