Plastic Camera Fun

Also, for FOUR years I've been maintaining this blog. Some time periods better than others, but I hope you feel like you've been able to get to know Savannah better. We're glad you're here.

Polaroid of the Day

POTD: Little Bono

I have this goofy iphone app that takes vintage style photos. I just love this one.

POTD: More Toy Camera Fun

Who Loves Savannah?

Daddy loves Savannah...

This is more toy camera film (this time from my Holga), which was damaged as it didn't wind properly, but I don't care because I love this photo.

Damaged film is part of the thrill of the toy camera anyway.

The Golden Half

I got this crazy little plastic 'toy camera' a while back and darn if it's not the most fun thing ever! It's called The Golden Half and it takes a 35mm frame of film and splits it in two, essentially giving you a diptych, which can be cool or awful. You get 48 shots from a 24 exposure roll of film.

I took it for a test drive the other week and got my film back and scanned. I am really really excited about some film I sent off a few days ago, but I'll post that when I get it back.

I love my digital cameras with their super sharp lenses and amazing low light capability, but sometimes its just fun to push a button and not worry about all that technical stuff. It's been a buuuusy year for me professionally and this camera is just the mental break I need. I mean, it has a plastic lens! It uses film!! I have a feeling I'll be carrying it around with me often.
