Olga The Holga

[sophieisgod]

My Holga is so awesomely lame, it makes me happy. These are the best of a bad bunch, and basicallly represent me going "Coloured flash? AWESOME! Multiple exposures? AWESOME! TRA LA LA LA LA"









Also, thanks to everyone for the comments on my last post ♥

Also also, TWO POSTS IN A ROW WITHOUT MENTIONING MERLIN? WTF, SELF? Ahhh, that's better.

Wow, these are goooorgeous!!!

I don't really understand what a Holga is! Or anything about photography.

But I can point and go, "Ooooooooooh, puuuuuurty," with the best of them. :D

Thank you! :)

This (http://www.lomography.com/holga/) is a Holga (mine is blue, yellow and pink!). It's basically a shitty toy camera, made of really cheap plastic, that takes square photos and has a colourful flash. You wind it on manually, so you can capture more than one image on the same frame of film. Because it's so crappy, you get lots of light leaks which make the photos look all trippy and fabulous :)

It's insane, the Eiffel Tower is actually, like, blue! I think it's an EU thing? :)

THAT PICTURE, I CANNOT EVEN. BRADLEY'S FAAAAAACE.

[lalumena.livejournal.com]

BLESS PUDSEY FOR PROVIDING SUCH AMUSEMENTS. *goes to find the RH one from last year*

BRADLEY'S FACE IS A THING OF WONDER. AND CONTINUES TO ENDEAR ME GREATLY TO HIM.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

LOL, I totally already did that today. EVEN PUDSEY KNEW GUY/MARIAN WAS WHERE IT WAS AT. Poor, deluded Robin.

I LOVE HIM, BUT SOMETIMES I WONDER WHAT EXACTLY IS HAPPENING IN HIS BRAIN.

Also, I SEE YOU, POSTING ARTHUR/MERLIN VIDEOS TO TUMBLR :D

From the look of that picture, he has been heeding the advice of the Great Slash Dragon?

...I COULD NOT RESIST. (It's sort of becoming my repository of 'ooh, I Liked This and will want to enjoy it again later')

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Awww, thank you! Snag away ♥

OHH, SLASHY BOYS.

[bishwop.livejournal.com]

HOW DID YOU GET ALL THOSE EFFECTS??! OOOooooOOOOooooOOOOH! PRETTY.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Basically, from not winding the camera on, moving it a little bit, and taking another shot :) The kind of soft-focus part is just due to the camera being made of shitty plastic and letting in lots of light, or something. But it's pretty!

[bishwop.livejournal.com]

Okay, I now understand that a Holga is a specific TYPE of camera...but am otherwise clueless. Care to explain?

ALSO I FIND MYSELF VERY EXCITED ABOUT MERLIN TOMORROW. PROGRESS!!

[lovestories.livejournal.com]

OH SO PRETTY. I want a Holga, now! On the website they sound both amazingly awesome and totally pretentious at the same time. WHICH EQUALS WIN, OBVIOUSLY.
