stockbridge ripples
(viewed 1096 times)
I took this picture at a time when I was playing about with different film types, later opting solely for high contrast slide film. I'd already taken an initial shot of the pond ripples - visible at the top of the picture - and wanted to layer over a picture of a swan swimming in the pond. swans are fickle creatures so I decided to cycle at breakneck speed along the adjacent path, swung the holga low then took the second shot before the swan had a chance to fly away or attack me. that explains the unorthodox composition of the picture!

holga retrospective 08/09
I thought it might be a nice idea to post some holga pictures that I've taken over the past year or so. these pics are just sitting around on my hard drive gathering dust anyway. they would probably never see the light of day if I didn't present them on some website or other, and seeing as I don't bother using flickr any more, it's gonna have to be here. sorry.
expect a veritable smorgasbord of tasty holga treats over the next few days and beyond...

happy belated origin day!
(viewed 675 times)
what with all the faffing around with my moblog design yesterday, I forgot to post an image for origin day, the 150th anniversary of the publication of darwin's on the origin of species. I celebrated the event in a small way by attending a university of edinburgh lecture/debate thing hosted by zoologist aubrey manning.
if the weather was any better today I might have gone out and taken a suitably naturalistic picture to illustrate this great occasion. instead, the image above is from the simplified tree of life poster sitting on my wall. if you don't own a copy of this poster already you can order it free from www.openuniversity.co.uk/darwin
also, to hear the great edward o wilson talking about on the origin of species check out...
