Hey you, fake Holga print!


This Lomo effect took me about 45 minutes to tweak here and there with layers, filters, colours brushing and contrasting etcetc. All of these was just to get a Lomo effect picture.

This is now down to one question:

Do I get the fun from taking photos from my cheapo Holga and concentrateing on just merely shooting or more fun from tweaking an normal digital picture from Photoshop??

I guess I get the same fun from both side. Still I think photoshop and digital photography are my lazy photography while the Holga and manual film photography are my romantic side........

Hmm.......... Not so. To develop a roll of 35mm can cost a fortune, let alone the 120 film which will require a professional lab to developp them, rather than the local chemist shop down the road.

Digital picture photography is like instant noodles, convenient, cheap and satisfying. I guess you can get too much of MSG in it. While the old fashion photography is like leafing through an old book, a sensational experience lost in time......
