happy holga
i am insanely in love, and it's not with my husband.
i am in love with a camera. a lomo holga, to be precise.
i cannot explain what it is about this nifty little camera that i love so much. it's totally not high-tec at all - there are no electronic bits in it, and the only thing that requires a battery for it to work is the flash.
the thing is, i've always loved photography and i remember playing around with my mom's fully manual nikon camera when i was little. the iPhone made snapping pictures on the go much easier, but there's really something about shooting on film that feels so different. i love this camera so much that i've taken to just leaving it in my handbag so i'll always have it with me. currently i'm switching between shooting on 35mm and 120 film and shot about two rolls of 35mm pictures with it in Sri Lanka. (you can see the best pics here). hopefully i'll be able to get out and about and shoot as much as i can :)
