Reminder – World Pinhole Day is April 25th
Just a friendly neighborhood reminder that this Sunday! Sunday!! Sunday!!! is World Pinhole Photography Day. In previous years, I’ve been well-intentioned, but still never quite actually participated. This year however, I’ve built a custom pinhole camera from an Altoids tin (would that make it a ‘mint-hole’ camera, a ‘pintoid,’ ‘curiously lensless’???) from scratch. There are […]

Diana F – Surfer Lanikai
Lanikai Beach, on O’ahu’s windward coast, is a place that existed in my imagination well before I ever knew it actually existed.

Holga Hike – Beaver Lake Nature Center
Alas & alack, it just wasn’t meant to be… I didn’t submit my Holga Hike image in time due to a mix of FedEx fumbling the delivery date of my fresh developer, family visiting for Easter and a misinterpretation of a vague deadline. C’est la vie. The good news is Randy from HolgaMods assures me […]
