Another wintery detail made poetic by a Holga lens.

My principle of finding blobs of colour works for Holga lens work as well…

I found the surf looked really interesting with the Holga lens – a change from the tack sharp or silky blur waters of the DSLR’s.

This spring my family and I went on a weekend trip to Helsinki. More images will follow but right now I want to show what I got out of bringing the Holga lens with me on our day trip to Tallinn.

If you put a Holga lens on your DSLR you must forget about auto focus. In fact forget about manual focus as well. What you’ve got are four ikon on the lens, from ‘close’ to ‘mountain’. If you can remember the intervals and brought a measuring tape, you might the focus just right. If you are like me, you take an educated guess – if you remember. If you’re off – well, ‘blurry’ never looked so good 🙂
