This part of holga blog is changing…it’s now a democracy, with over 10 writers choosing their best shots uploaded to Flickr for the month.  Hopefully you should see a broader range of photographs covering a multitude of subjects and techniques

They are in no order at all, I just get sent them from the writers after some discussion.  If you appreciate any of the photographs, I suggest clicking through to that person’s flickr page to leave a comment and check out the rest of their photos!
The Rules for inclusion..

Basically any photos taken with the holga that I think either stand out, are beautifully composed, or even push the boundaries of the holga. Or photos of cute animals. I like cute animals.

There seems to be a bit of a reflection/light theme going on this month with a lot of the photos. Maybe it’s us up in the Northern hemisphere craving some summer sun.

First things first. The image above was shot on my Holga, and I only manipulated digitally by way of turning it black & white and adding my copyright symbol. Otherwise, this is shown exactly as it was shot, with the image stretching its way across the film plain in a nice wide panoramic and covering [...]
