Artist's Comments

here is the first of my ten part holga series...

all of these have been finely printed on 16x20 paper.. they have been well recieved and this one has been gotten the most attention...

also, the print tones are much more subtle in the actual print.. if anyone is interested in purchasing one or all of the series note me and we can negotiate price...

i love the holga for its pure randomness... never know what youre gonna get!!! i never even looked through the viewfinder when i took any of these... just point and shoot... the prints are, of course heavily manipulated in the darkroom...

enjoy and stay tuned for more coming :)

Don't you just love holgas? :) They can be so surprising.

Nice image; I like the linear elements very much.

thank you thank you...

yea i think i love to hate the holga... :)

making a ten print series on 16x20 paper is NOT easy... it took me so many hours just to get the printing done...

Very mysterious: lines, shadows and a human with his legs, but no face. Nice composition!

Yeah? try printing on 20 by 24 in color. ;) I know what you mean, but was it not worth the effort? Surely it was. :D

That was over a year ago. Photography classes kind of got squeezed out.

just the idea of printing 20x24 holga prints makes me scared...

Oooh, mysterious and spooky...this reminds me of the pictures from this book of ghost stories I had when I was younger. You're good with those beach picket fences...
