So here's my first attempt at playing with a Holga, after discovering my newfound obsession with lomographic cameras. I used 60mm film for what I thought would result in some nice square format negatives, but ended up with some crazy overlapping instead, as the film counter corresponds with 35mm film. So in all, I ended up with mostly underexposed, overlapped and abstract images. And a few light bleeds through the camera back too (I think?).
In my defense though the instruction manual that came it was for a completely different camera!
The inbuilt colour flashes (red,yellow,blue or white) are great fun, I took a liking to the blue in particular, and there's often a dreamy feel provided by short depth of field. This was fun, more experiments coming soon!

I stalked via Timmys fb connection but was so impressed I had 2 stalk more.

Look forward to seeing what 2009 has in for store.
