(the girl in the photo, we had actually seen the previous night getting her portrait done in a street stall in a pedestrian street, so imagine my shock/excitement/spooked-out-ness when we saw her getting on our boat the next day...)

Taken with Nikon D80; the thing is so old - around three years old - that it's only got 10 megapixels. There's Jap phones which have 12mp cameras. I reckon it's time for an upgrade, Dad.

Apparently the film had been in the camera for a while, so I just took photos of random things around my house in case the film had expired. And probably because of the aging film, all the photos had that misty thing going on, but the stupid scanner seems to have made it look worse.

This time most of the photos turned out (relatively) well (ie they weren't all fuzzy), but I guess I'm still too used to digital cameras and so I basically took two shots of everything, therefore there's only 11 photos worth scanning.

Holga dec08-jan09 part deux

2009-02-10T14:58:00.004+08:00

Picked up the second batch of holga photos, and I have to say the guy was right the first time - total failure. These are the only ones that aren't fuzzy colours:

supposed to be lanterns

another shot of the CNY markets

So I paid RMB40 for 5 good photos. I guess it would've been worse if I got the Holga 120 and had to use special film and get it specially developed. Oh wells I'm ready for round two, and this time I won't get the symbols confused and use the wrong setting.

I forgot to advance the film and super-imposed the shots. A happy accident, because it's my favourite photo so far
