Thanks for all the nice comments on this. I was photographing a newborn and her brothers wouldn't leave me alone. So I shot them!

Petros. This Holga will leak in strong light. I use 2" black paper tape along the sides, and tape up the holes inside that appear when you remove the 645 mask. One further modification is an elastic band to hold the whole contraption together.

Thanks for the comments on this. Aurore - I use Portra 400VC almost exclusively in my Holgas. Nice saturation. Good examples are:

Charles, I used Kodak colour infrared film and a deep yellow filter.

Thanks for the comments. Anne, yes this is Kodak EIR. I don't know of any other colour infrared products.

Thanks for the comments.
Ursula - the Holga is a $15 plastic medium format toy camera made in China. No two are alike.
Richard - cropping Holga shots doesn't often work for. The vignetting is such a part of the look. (With normal 35mm I would crop however.)

Thanks for your comments on my pix yesterday Terry. This is cool. I wanna get into pinhole - the Holga's feeling a little high tech these days.

Thanks for comments. I should have added that I used grad filters (3 stops) to knock the sky back. That's what allows the saturation.

Thanks for the comments on this. I agree the crop helps, and the cloning idea is good. (I often feel this is cheating, but I realize it has its uses.)

I agree that this image could be seen as way over-saturated. It was my first (and only) image shot using the Cokin Blue/Yellow polarizer. Marc - I can't really say what the 'subject' is per se. We were crossing a stream on a hike and I liked the scene. I stuck the tripod in the water, got low, and blasted a couple of frames. That's it.

Thanks for the comments on this. As for 'technique', it was pretty straightforward. Stand in front of the camera, hold a polarizer over the lens and fire the shutter. Eyad - this fisheye is only 15mm, you may have been using something wider.

Thanks for the comments. I should've added that I used a polarizer on this, which helped the colour quite a bit. Christopher - this is on the Bustard Islands, off the mouth of the French River. The quartzite hills of Kilarney are visible in the distance.

Thanks for the comments. It isn't the scan that's soft, it's the slide. I resorted to handheld when faced with 10 secs of sun, lighting up what looked like a nice scene. Too bad, as the colours and contrast came out nicely.

I also use the Xpan but find very few pix work vertically. This one does.

You're right Bart, the scan is a bit blotchy in the sky. Thanks Heather, yeah, that was my pic of the khmer kids. It was lost in the 'fire' here a couple weeks ago. I'll repost it.

Thanks for the comments on the Holga. I agree that I should have got a few % more on the right. The viewfinder is so off, it makes it tough to line stuff up correctly. Just aim, squint, shoot. There were whales in the bay behind this scene. The Rock is an awesome destination.
