You're right, it was a junkie, very leaky camera. I wish I knew to appreciate the imperfections back then. Very interesting article.<BR/><BR/>I use mostly the "P" setting on my camera. It is automated but it allows you to choose one override at a time. I am too clumsy and too lazy to use manual. I tip my hat to all who do.Dutchbabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844296297519447526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-14892254402283566102009-02-18T23:15:00.000+01:002009-02-18T23:15:00.000+01:00Is that a mini satellite dish your wearing disguis...Is that a mini satellite dish your wearing disguised as a ring?

I think things like this are the things that will do more for photography as art than a new digital with 500 pixel resolution.willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15590217997145761582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-66196977682308228682009-02-18T16:30:00.000+01:002009-02-18T16:30:00.000+01:00So interesting that simple handmade items, old cam...So interesting that simple handmade items, old cameras and expired film can give such an artistic looking picture. Blown up and framed in a large white matte I imagine would make some of these quite striking.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08653940993739799006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-2555932688696347192009-02-18T16:02:00.000+01:002009-02-18T16:02:00.000+01:00love the tutorial - I haven't tried using the holg...love the tutorial - I haven't tried using the holga I recently found at a thrift store for $1.99 but I want to now that I'm getting settled in.Charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03851293154388793520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-36053309684924865092009-02-18T15:49:00.000+01:002009-02-18T15:49:00.000+01:00beautiful photos !beautiful photos !Maria and Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16665059939395004510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131844.post-60390520605337149972009-02-18T14:05:00.000+01:002009-02-18T14:05:00.000+01:00what a great post !I love my duraflex and shooting...what a great post !<BR/>I love my duraflex and shooting TTVF !! My pics from that always turn out great and my hubby made such a perfect light contraption for it, that no extra light can get in no matter what !<BR/>He even made the edges with duck tape so that I can fold the whole thing flat while I'm out and about and then it pops open when I need it...I'll try and do a picture if you are interested in seeing it :)<BR/><BR/>and all those other cameras...WAY TOO FUN !!!<BR/><BR/>but I'm the lazy one here doing the cross processing and lomography on photoshop...it's just too easy and I don't have the ability to carry or purchase all those other cameras, but wow, they are so cute !!bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094533582512917616noreply@blogger.com
