Holga 35mm

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

So, my site is still not completely finished which really is getting me down but that is how life goes some times and although I really want to update it with content and save my latest images for that, I have decided to post some personal experimental images that I have been shooting in my free time that isn’t part of the commissioned work that I do but definitely still as fun for me.

I have a lot that needs to be processed (physically and not digitally) and will post more as they come but for now here are 5 images that I shot with my Holga 35mm plastic lens camera that my wife bought me for this passed Christmas. It’s super cool looking and really has a fun feel to it but I really battle to shoot with something that doesn’t allow me to control exposure so instead I find myself using other means to get by this. These photos are mostly of the sky on a cloudy / rainy day about 2 weeks back and then a portrait of my good friends and wife that I shot in a tiny road off of Brick Lane.

My Veronica is for Sale

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

As most of you know already, Anja (my wife) and I are moving to the UK for a permanent while next month and we are really excited at the opportunities that already exist for us. Unfortunately we cannot take everything with us so we have to get rid of some of our really special stuff and that is what this post is about. My poor Veronica (quad bike) needs to find a new owner and she has been cleaned up and taken to a store and is currently for sale. She has been the best and most fun bike / quad I have ever had and I am really sad to get rid of her but it would just be a huge waste to leave her in the garage to grow old. I am letting her go for a good price to make the sale quick so if any of you are looking for a quad, please keep her in mind because she needs a good owner.

Click here for her advert on Bike and Quad Mart or go and see her at Bikes Galore at 93 Van Riebeeck Avenue in Edenvale.

Lomo Livings

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

I have been shooting quite a few photographs with my lomo cameras to play around and really love the way that they come out. I had a bunch processed yesterday and thought that I should post these three of us driving because they are my favourite. Explore lomo photography if you haven’t, it’s really fun and anyone will love the results.

I shot these with a Lomo Supersampler.
