Lomography pictures from Inauguration

Just posted my pictures from the Inauguration on flickr. Check them out! I’ll be back to write more later.

Holga!

First shot

At long last, well it was really just two weeks, I received my first roll of film shot using my new Holga.

This is a double exposure. Of course I had to try a very difficult shot as my very first. It ended up being a great lesson. Notice how the right side of the picture is just the porta-potty. There was enough light in this image to expose the film so that the second image didn’t show up. However, on the left side, which I don’t recall what was there, the film remained somewhat unexposed allowing me to capture a ghostly image of the inside of the bus.  I love how the fence fills the whole image. All-in-all, not bad for my first two clicks.

Double exposure

This image is my favorite.  It was done with full intention and I think it came out precisely as I had intended.

I have a bunch more to share but these were just the first two that really grabbed me. Going to run them through lightroom to see what happens.  I’ll flickr them all, but I may post a few more of my favorites soon!

The last and the first.

Had a great new years eve and day!

Sore today from a great hike in Temescal Canyon. I took my Holga so we all have to wait for the results. I’ll post them as soon as I get them in, if any of them come out. I should have taken a second roll of film. Oh well.

Hopefully today will go by pretty quickly. I have a lot to do this weekend.

Hope your New Years was as great as mine!
