I'm Baaccckkkkk!

I am finally back in Madrid after a one week holiday in Belgium. It was fantastic! There was alot of walking, AND alot of fries, ice-cream, waffles and chocolates in between.

However, I am not quite ready to blog about it yet..I'm soo tired, yet sooo excited!! There is still 'Part 2' of my summer holiday plans continuing next weekend.

Meanwhile, look at what I got from this trip >>

Left: Blackbird Fly Twin Lens Reflex Camera in Orange

Right: Hole-On Ex Make & Shoot Paper Pinhole Camera

The Blackbird Fly was a surprise belated birthday gift from my dear sister (dank u!!!), and I found the Hole-on Ex from the Urban Outfitters shop at Antwerp.

My last trip back to Singapore I bought the Holga 135BC and I am still finishing my 1st roll in black and white.

Can't wait. Now all I need is a Diana F+ (Mr Pink).

Fisheye #2 - Collection 1

I can't believe this is my first ever post on photos taken with my LOMO Fisheye 2.
(I have since bought a Holga 135BC.)
Anyway, here are just a few I have decided to post, shot around Madrid and Salamanca.

My first roll was really just experimental (excuses, excuses..but I'm sticking to it!).
Most of the time I didn't turn on the flash when I really should have, and others were wasted on accidental firing of the shutter as I didn't lock it. It's SO sensitive!!
As a result, I have 3 pics of my lens cover, which is extremely embarassing.

Also, I made the mistake of developing the photos instead of having them scanned onto a CD in the lab. So I ended up scanning the pictures myself on my scanner and they all looked kinda crappy.

I do have a favourite in this 1st batch though.

I must admit I didn't put to good use the cool functions of the Fisheye #2 (like exploring the long exposure capability or the multi-exposure switch). I will do so next time ;o)
