Holga Updates!

Journal Entry: Thu Jul 10, 2008, 9:01 AM
Yes, the scanner is working.

The colour is not reliable. If I end up scanning with a certain part of the scanner, it changed the colour and contrast a bit, but I'm using photoshop as best I can as a darkroom.

I'd worry more about the quality of the scans if it weren't the Holga...but the point of using a Holga is that they're gritty and rough.

All of the lens flares are intentional as are 99% of the double exposures. Most of these were taken as part of a project, so all of the images overlap a little with the next image over. And I rather like all the strange colour distortions that were cause by both that and the wee bit of exposure from when the back of the camera fell off.

There might be a bit of strange colour/contrast splotchiness from stitching some of the bigger shots together with photomerge...but again, since it's Holga splotchy is kind of better

Oh to be on a Holga again

I've been okay. really tired, and kind of lazy. My eyes are starting to hurt terribly already from working on computers all day. but it could be worse.

The show I'm working on is coming along really well, and over all it's been pretty good times

How about you, how are things/the summer in general going?
