My new Holga camera arrives in the mail!

I have been reading this photo journal site Blue Coyote Laughing for a while. I love how the photos capture a feeling, an idea rather than attempting to be a perfect photo. Seeing that the artist was using 'toy cameras', I just had to know more. So I researched and found out a little about a particular toy camer, the Holga camera.

I found one online and it was so cheap that I just had to have one!

Today I got my Holga in the mail, I don't even know how to load the film! I was about to journal my thoughts about this new adventure, make a list of what I need to learn, what types of shots I need to take (this is not a digital camera so I can't take whatever I feel like and delete the bad ones) and decided to journal my thoughts online!

This is the space that I am going to post about learning all about taking shots with my new Holga.
