Baltimore with a Holga

Micah introduced me to the Holga camera a while back. Wikipedia sums up the Holga by saying it’s “an inexpensive, medium format 120 film toy camera, made in China, appreciated for its low-fidelity aesthetic.”

I encourage you to read more about it. I found it pretty fascinating.

Anyway, Micah has been taking pics of Baltimore with his Holga for a few weeks now and just recently got them developed and scanned. I stole today’s pic from him. He took it on the corner of North Charles and West Eager Street in Baltimore. I’ll probably be stealing more pics in the future for this series. Thanks Micah…I know how much you love it when I steal your stuff!

    Yeah, I don’t care if you steel my stuff–I know where you live! – But if you grab a photo off my flickr account, you dont have to download it and put it on your flickr! Just use the power of HTML!
