<p>Awesome...Thanks for the link.</p>

<p>Thanks Clive. I myself am a huge fan of the Holga. My images look nothing like those John Stanmeyer. Still it is always fun to see what come out of Holgas.</p>

 

<p>Thanks for the link. Good photographs. I live in Thailand and can understand what the photographer is talking about when he says in the interview that accompanies the photos that we're now experiencing an age of cultural genocide. Interesting choice of cameras on his part. Helps to have an assistant along with you to help re-load the film. </p>
