You can have too much of all this modern digital perfection so when I saw a plastic Holga camera I thought it would make a good change of approach and make me take some pictures that would look different. Most of these were taken using a tripod because the plastic body is so lightweight; the film is Fuji Pro 400H processed through Harrisons and the square prints were scanned with an Epson LIDE scanner at 600 ppi.

These images were all taken with my father's old Pentax ME Super using Ilford HP5 film and a Pentax 50mm lens. I sent it for a service to Harrow Technical and it came back as good as new. Films are processed by Ilford Labs and scanned by them at 3,000 x 4,000 high-res. I am really pleased with the results and some of these have a ghostly feel which almost looks like an infrared filter.
