I love taking pictures right, its my job my future and totally dominates my life.
if i could replace my penis with a camera i would, and it wold be a massive camera. :]

Right


So sometimes i cant even help my self taking my camera everywhere with me, nights out, shopping trips, everything.

?

Ever since i got my holga its been my snap shot camera. siting in a little camera bag by my side. Its a very tricky camera to use as are most range finders when you start using them.


Ok maybe not for this one :/

Now if you don't know a holga check my other post but its a fat toy camera made out of plastic, used in lo-fi (bad image quality) photography.

So when i heard about a foam party me and my little holga were all over it, after some heavy electric tape work sealing the back onto my camera (after the last night club shoot where it basically fell apart) we were set to go,

(sorry about small pictures sizes, light room suddenly hates anything over 10 megs)


wont bore you with the facts but it went well and got some good results, check them out.

After my hang over the next day faded i checked my holga for damage, a sticker fell out, that's it. Strong little camera when fortified with tape.

Just a few quick fire facts, Holgas are slated by the pro industry for being lo-fi and having unpredictable results YET they take high res studio images on 30k cameras then make them look like they were shot on a holga, see the news skins ad campaign for a good example.

How lame.
