That darned (and wonderful) light-leaking plastic camera business again. It's perfect, I think, for presenting summertime memories the way they are in my mind. I was following my sister one evening after dinner down a seagrass path leading to the ocean. The sun was shining, the wind rippling across the tall grass, and butterflies....thousands of them, everywhere.

About Me
- sMacThoughts
- I live in NYC, love all forms of art, old scary movies, PBS, and dark chocolate. I have an identical twin sister, chew the inside of my mouth, do not fear snakes, (but will burst into a Native American War Dance at the sight of a cockroach, complete with yodeling) love three-legged dogs and one-eyed cats, but have neither, and sing the 'Our Father' in funny renditions every night before bed.

Holy cow, thank you! This was with a Diana 151 camera. That is the original one without flash.
It looks a little Alice in Wonderlandy
and oh yeah I know that cam
Ha [ only kidding ]
I WISH I knew about photography !
Wow, wonderful. I just got a Diana F+ camera for my birthday, and I can't wait to use it! But I wish they made digital lomography cameras :(
sandy ... Well, Sandy it is a piece of plastic into which you load simple oldfashioned film...not 35mm kind. These cameras used to be given free with a full tank of gas at the gas station. So, nothing fancy! (now they are being brought back as the Diana F+ but I fear they won't be lo-fi enough for me as they are probably sufficiently light-tight. Still, a good option for those without originals!)
Chris .... Oh you will LOVE using toy plastic camera-ry!! Leave the digital to Canon, Nikon, and Fuji. Plastics only go with film!! Let me know when you have some pics up!
your work is stunning! you have a look all of your own!
It's neat to see the different results you get from the different camera's. I think my fav still is the SX-70.
Have you heard of this newer site Poladroid. I was curious and tried it out.... not even close. Keeping honest with the real thing.
OH, love your new X-mas cards on Etsy- adorable reindeer!
georgia, thank you so much!
sandy, never heard of poladroid...what is that??
it's a site where you can take one of your digital pics, and give the digital a polaroid effect. You even get to shake it like a polaroid picture. The effect is ok, but not close enough.
Just saw the newest on your sisters Flickr. Is that your eerie hand? ooooo scary!
Yes, that is my hand. We have loads 'o' fun doing these things she thinks up. :)
Perfectly lovely.
why thank you very much!
Ooh, I always wanted to try out a Diana camera. Those images are lovely. Keep up the great work!!
Wow! I love this photo. Scary...
