Plastic Camera / Pinhole

Ireland “Diana Camera” Photographs Continued below…scroll down

dianaMy daughter Andei inspired me to pick up a film camera after 8 years of shooting digital and I must say I’ve enjoyed it!  The following are a series of photos taken with a medium format plastic Diana camera.  I can also use it to make pinhole photographs. I must say making photographs with a film camera is a much different aesthetic experience than with a digital camera. They are both fun but very different creative experiences.  Enjoy!

    Patrick — my daughter is interesting in getting a reasonable quality SLR digital and learning more about the tech side of photography — she has been researching a bit and comparing prices and is thinking along the lines of a Nikon D60 or D80 [i forget which] I am interested in your thoughts regarding equipment… if you get a moment :)
    I did not have your e-mail address handy — it was more fun to check in on your blog anyway —
    Peace,

    Interesting
    BTW, there is a group on Facebook I belong to, called Lomography = lotech photo
    using lots of these cameras. They have a store and website and newsletter.
    I noticed lots of Lomo cameras for sale at the Andy Warhol Museum shop too.
    Looks like fun!
