Lessons in Lomography #2
After my last attempt at taking photos with the Holga camera that Ed gave me last Christmas, things have improved only slightly. I think I roll the film along too far when I get to the next frame, and I also probably hold the shutter open for too long. It's not an automatic shutter so it's hard, ok! I do kind of like these two though, especially the last one which was taken at Bondi. We were eating ice creams and watching the Festival of the Winds, which is the annual day of kite-flying on the beach. The festival is my Grandmother's favourite day of the year and always reminds me of her.
I obviously need some tips, anyone have any?
I really love these photographs! They look like they should be album covers :-)
ReplyDeleteProfessional photographers will tell you that it is your skill - not the model of your camera - that makes a good picture. Even then, a good camera helps you take good pictures. A good camera is a good motivator for you to keep practicing your photography skills, and keep taking pictures of interesting places and scenes.
ReplyDeleteEr, thanks Teds Camera! Still getting used to the volatile lomo, but getting there.
