Holgaroid

One Christmas Heather gave me a Holga with a Polaroid back. The combo is commonly known as a "Holgaroid." With its plastic lens, strong vignetting and unpredictable light leaks, the Holga creates old looking photos from modern film. Oh sure, you could easily mimic the Holgaroids effects using PhotoShop but where's the fun in that? Sadly, Polaroid stopped producing the square peel apart film more than a year ago thereby rendering my Polaroid back useless. Here are a few of my favorite Holga shots.
