Holga 135 – heath ofee dot com http://heathofee.com Fri, 20 May 2011 12:20:21 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.1.6 Two Roads… http://heathofee.com/2011/05/20/two-roads/ http://heathofee.com/2011/05/20/two-roads/#comments Fri, 20 May 2011 13:10:04 +0000 http://heathofee.com/?p=2341 Welcome to what I hope will be a weekly feature on the blog I’m calling ‘Film Friday’. Since I was recently gifted with a Holga 135, I decided I should probably showcase at least one photo from this cool toy camera every week. The shots I post here on Fridays will be straight negative scans of the film with no modifications…what’s the point of buying a toy camera for all the imperfections if you just fix them in post? I hope you enjoy my little foray back into the realm of film photography!

This shot is from my day trip to Grassi Lakes last week. Upon entering the trail head just up from the parking lot, one is greeted with this sign. Which way do you find yourself leaning when given this choice on a daily basis?

Simplicity http://heathofee.com/2011/05/15/simplicity/ http://heathofee.com/2011/05/15/simplicity/#comments Sun, 15 May 2011 14:10:35 +0000 http://heathofee.com/?p=2346 Last week I came home from work one day to find that my wonderful wife had bought me a Holga 135! As I’m sure you can imagine, I was super excited to take it for a test run, so I grabbed a 5-pack of 200 ISO 35mm film from the local drugstore and loaded it up as soon as I got home.

The first test run of this new toy was on my day trip to the mountains this past Wednesday. I snapped most of a roll while on the hike and finished it off at an urbex site that happened to be on the way home. A few of the nature/landscape shots worked out, but I can see this camera producing much more interesting photos in an urban setting. The shot you see below is the last frame of the roll, and is probably my favourite. The simplicity of the composition and the strong contrast between the brown panel and white brick really seemed to work well.
