The Best Holga Photos from Flickr April 2009

bestof

Sorry for the late one this month.  It’s been mad-busy with themed days following themed weeks.  I think we are through the worst of the time now! (Scheduling NIGHTMARE: WPD2009,ICCD09 & ‘Roid Week 09 all in the space of a few weeks, there’s still a few articles sat unpublished, they’ll have to wait till next year now!).

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. We like cute animals.

    What a ride! I feel like I’m dreaming – those shots are surreal and unsettling in the best way. Great month.
    Jarvis rocks!

Holga Wide and Tele Lens test shots

Here are a few test shots I took in my back yard a couple of weeks ago using the new Holga Wide and Tele lenses.  For comparison, I stood in the same spot and took them all from the same angle (as best I could!).
I will keep trying out the lenses in some more different [...]

Review: Holga 120 WPC

I was originally going to start this review of the 120 WPC off quite technically – what the WPC stood for, what features it had, what the f-stop was. That kind of thing. Then I realised I’d been sucked into what I actually try to avoid in photography: geekspeak. So while some of the specifics [...]

The Massive Guide to all Holga Cameras

Back in the day, when things were simple, we had one Holga camera: The Holga 120S. But since then, the range of Holga cameras have increased dramatically, ranging from bizarre Hello Kitty branded point and shoot cameras to even bizarrer stereo 3d cameras.
As Holga are releasing more and more products, especially since their rebrand/relaunch [...]
