Orange Bike
by SMercury98
This Orange Bike shot was taken with a Holga film camera. For those who are not familiar with a Holga, the following info is what Wikipedia has to say about the camera.
"The Holga is an inexpensive, medium format 120 film toy camera, made in China, appreciated for its low-fidelity aesthetic.The Holga's cheap construction and simple meniscus lens often yields pictures that display vignetting, blur, light leaks, and other distortions. The camera's quality problems have become a virtue among some photographers, with Holga photos winning awards and competitions in art and news photography."
The sad part of this image? Poison Girl is only halfway open. =(
