Place + Thyme: Photoblog from Ottawa, ON

Signs of spring: I figured out how to do long exposures on my camera yesterday (about time.. no pun intended). Here's the first attempt, taken after the hot hot hot recorder concert. We noticed the croci? popping up on the Parliament lawn... so cute.

Also:
I'm feeling inspired by these Holga shooters.

That is a gorgeous shot and very spring-like.

Great Holga link! I still haven't had a chance to get batteries and film for mine yet. This job has got me chained to my desk it seems. Gack!

I'm taking my first roll to be developed today. *nervous*

Nice. What was this - film or digital?

You can get the reissue Holgas and Lomos from Amazon.com, oddly enough!

I love that picture. Do you ever sell prints, by any chance?

Hi AJ,
I used my Nikon 5400 to do this. But I'm keen to try it with film now that I know what to do.

Prints! Yes, I'm working on a new site at the moment (I know I've said this before.. but this time I mean it) with a portfolio and shop. I'd like to be able to offer prints larger than 5x7 (which is all I can decently get from my digital camera).. Also, I feel weird selling digital photos... they don't have the feel or look of real film.

So, short answer. Shop = soon. Products = film.

What? No photos of Horacio? I am mucho disappointed.

But, I can settle for Croci. That's a great night shot.

robyn, I could barely look at him - let alone get the camera out. How do you say "tight pants" in spanish? Los pantalones!

Lana / 04.13.05

looking forward to the new site Lana!!
