Description Downtown Omaha, lots of shady alleys to hang out in.


Holga 120 CFN
120 Expired Fuji 400 pro
Scanned from negative
I created the light leaks by rolling the film around in my hand in the sunlight before sealing them up.

So do you like roll it hard or just gentle and fast or...? I really want to try that out.
Also, are you using a filter here? Do you use a frame insdie the holga?

It's been like 4 years since I took this one so it's kind of hard for me to remember, to be completely honest I don't think there is any real science to it, just sort of goof off and experiment, that's how I figure about 99% of things out...just roll it around, but not hard enough to unravel it or rip the paper. You want leaks not complete obliteration...but other than that I think it looks better when it is organic. I don't use the plastic frames, if that's what you are asking, but sometimes I'll make my own frames out of tape and construction paper. I'd like to upgrade to some thicker card stock, but I'm without a darkroom at the moment so that makes it kind of hard to do this stuff now.

of the alleys?

yeah, I wouldn't go down them at night but during the day they are pretty harmless.
