So, I'm not sure what anyone else's reaction would be, but I'm quite pleased. Not that they're good, but that they're pretty crap. The whole point of this exercise was for me to see if I could get back into film photography again after 10 years away from it, and to see if I could force myself to improve.

Well, I couldn't get any worse.

At the same time, there is a lot I like about the images. Honestly. Firstly, it's that it's very clear that my shitty little Holga puts its own scratchy stamp on things, although I'm not entirely sure what the vertical streaks on every one of these photos is from - they don't appear on the colour ones at any rate.

Also, I love that these images exist - I have the negatives, so I know for a fact that I took them in an actual camera and that actual light hit actual film. Crap pictures or not, there is something really satisfying about that that I had forgotten.

Back in a moment with some colour pics!
