Holgas, 1996 - 2002

I shot with a plastic “Holga” camera with black and white film. Although it has only three ranges of focus, and one shutter speed, it was very quirkily reliable in bright sunlight. There is no parallax correction so getting a picture can be like “bullfighting” with the camera. You look one place but the camera frames something else.  It was always a challenge.
