my new toy.

It's been far too long since I've posted and the holidays really took their toll on my blog, but I've finally picked up the prints from my new Holga! I was in NYC a couple weekends ago celebrating my birthday and I treated myself to a new, little camera treat: the Holga. For those of you who don't know what a Holga is, it's an extremely basic little camera with minimal aperture settings and you never quite know what you're going to get with it. The picture below is by far my favorite of the three rolls I shot while walking the streets of Brooklyn. I'd love to say I know exactly what I did to create this funky image, but that's the beauty of the Holga - you relinquish all control and really just focus on the composition.

Here's my shot from DUMBO in Brooklyn. Enjoy!
