Andreas--thank you for looking at my photo--it got me back here to U.F. I remember enjoying your work on photosig and have just spent a VERY enjoyable hour looking at all your photos here. This one is my favorite...so ancient and sparse looking...very atmospheric. I like your pinhole can-i've made a couple pinholes but have yet to get good results...maybe now that i'm learning to do my own printing i can experiment more.
Love your holgas! Holga and Dianas are my favorites-I'd almost forgotten how wonderfully quirky they are--I'll have to pull mine out again. I can learn a lot from studying your photos

Awesome photo! I disagree about the hand, tho--having it cut off adds so much to the sense of motion.
I love this series!

Colin, i love what you did to this photo---it couldn't possibly have been half as atmospheric in color! Such a mood! Great composition, too.
I'm really getting into b&w and sepia photos now...soon I'll begin posting again. Have you ever tried using a holga (toy) camera? something to look into, you might like it.
I'm off to look at the rest of your portfolio

Christian! I finally found my password to get back in here...great to see your new work! As always, they are all so evocative and create such a mood-wonderful work!
I haven't done much with my holga lately, ever since i dropped it and the back fell off and probably exposed the entire roll--but seeing yours has given me the itch again...God, I've missed seeing your work! I'll be in myrtle beach for christmas, and in fla again in january...got to stock up on lots of film.

Mary--i would check with any small, mom&pop type camera stores that are around you-they should be able to develop it for you. I'm lucky enough to have one in town that has been in business for years and they are familiar with the many types of cameras that have come and gone. They have been doing all my 120 and pinhole images so far, although i'm in the process of setting up a darkroom.
i found a source for film if you are interested:
http://www.frugalphotographer.com/index.htm
and another for more information on the camera:

I really like the medium format now; its hard for me to go back to the 35mm or digital camera that i just bought!
By the way, i violated my 2 rules of critiqueing when i left a comment for your photo--1) never use my monitor at home, and 2) never critique before looking through the rest of the portfolio. your images are awesome, and you have a unique vision...obviously you do exactly what you intended to do!

thank you for your comments! Seriously, if you have one of these cameras in your attic or wherever, give it a try again. the lens is hard to get used to as everything is backwards, but they force you to concentrate on the composition rather than the technical...and Yes, you can get film--the smaller photo shops carry it, as do many places online. Kodak Tmax120 is a great film, as is agfa. i've been using 400, 165, and 100 spd; I think this film was Tmax400
