I finally got my Holga pictures back from when I was in South Florida! They're very random, as per usual.

weekend updates

OK, I know it's been 2007 for a whole week, so really you all must be expecting some book reviews by now. I'm currently halfway through two different books, both of which are just OK, which is making it hard to care enough to finish either.

I saw "Children of Men" this weekend, and it was profoundly depressing. The trailers and reviews sort of point toward its grimness, but it's a lot more violent and terrifying than any of those had led me to believe. Just a warning in case any of you see it!

In other news, I think I accidentally exposed the roll currently in my Holga (the back of the camera fell off), which totally sucks as it had what I hoped were some cool pictures on it.

Also, my dad has turned my bedroom into a brewery!

Now THAT is a Holga picture!

I also really like this one (ghost trees!) and this one, but there are a few others that turned out ok too.

Since my Holga seems not to have any light leaks, the multiple exposures thing is clearly the way to get weird photos.

Here's a picture from the first roll taken with my Holga! I'm still experimenting but a few of these came out dark (despite being taken during very sunny days) and most did not exhibit any light leaks. I'm starting to play with the color gels so we'll see how that goes.

These pine trees have been up on campus for the past couple of weeks. Apparently they have something to do with not drinking and driving.
