I can’t believe it. I am such a sucker. The camera that we see in the front window of Urban Outfitters, I now have. Yes, I bought a Holga! As much as I don’t want to be sucked into certain pop, this camera makes the list of exceptions. I’m cheep and so is the Holga. And the shitty quality photograph it makes, I really love to a great extent as well. They’re liberating. It’s not bad to make a good picture even though it’s plastered with a bright yellow light leak, is it? Seems like this daily routine of making near perfect photographs with all the proper equipment can become suffocating after a project or two. I guess it’s just nice to pick up a light piece of plastic and capture with almost no intent. Oh and plus I can get all those sweet attachments like color filters and fake fisheyes. Who wouldn’t want that!?...
