Rainbow Gardens, Seattle 2002

Camera: Holga (I think)
Film: Tri-X 320

Night Photography with Holga.

It's been a long while since I've done a night shoot. The lights on a wall going up as part of the new Beacon Hill light rail station was cool, and I knew if I didn't get out there, the image would disappear as the construction progresses.

I was out a little after 11 PM, and I was surprised by how much foot traffic passed by. I have always found it interesting that during the day, when there are tons of people out and about, no one will bother you or approach you if you've set up a tripod and camera. During the night, you'll always find at someone who will suddenly veer in your direction to see what you are doing.

Image will be posted when the film is processed.

Japanese Tea Garden

This was taken at the Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco during our visit last spring. It's a beautiful garden, next to the new De Young museum in Golden Gate Park. The afternoon light was perfect.

Video: Holga Modification - Velcro

Have you ever had the back of your Holga unexpectedly pop open? This is the Holga mod for you! In this video, I show you how to apply velcro to keep the back from falling off, and to protect the counter window.
