not the most beautyfull pics but one that probably noone here can duplicate




it's part on the bunkercomplex here in the hague, the North Atlantic wall. Took a few hours of digging and getting trough tight holes in the dunes but def worth it. These things have been locked and barricaded since the late 40's and still (almost) fully in tact. We went inside 1 munition bunker and a part of the complex consisting of 12 bunkers and tunnels (mannshaftbunkers, munitionbunkers etc)
I'll def come alnong with these guys more, this is awsome

No(well you can with a "panorama adapter) it`s a medium format camera and it`s best as that.

Woa, you surely got that right Steve What a stunning portrait!

[Metallic Scribbler]

You`ll want color negative film, and by the Ritz website, they don`t have it. They do have black&white film though, and some slide film , but slide film isn`t really useable in a Holga, as slide film needs accurate exposure, while negative filme has a lot of latitude for error.

You`ll want ISO 400 film for regular shooting, and ISO 100/160 for those sunny days.
Even ISO 800 can be nice on a dark and cloudy day, if those ever happen in California

Films to look for: Kodak Portra 400 and 160, they can be found in neutral color versions(NC) and vivid color(VC)
Kodak also has a nice B&W-film that you develop in the same chemistry as the color negative films, it has a really smooth look, it`s called BW400CN


Fujifilm Reala 120 (ISO 100), Fujifilm 160S, 160C, 400H are the Fuji films to look for.

Good places to order online is 120 & 220 size Color Negative Film - Freestyle Photographic Supplies and of course B&H

B&H is the best, I buy all my stuff from them.

Wow thanks!! I just printed your post out. I found a family owned business that sells old cameras and film. It's probably going to be more expensive but whatever.

You`re welcome. A hot tip for development is to use A trusted name in photo processing for over 50 years - Dwayne's Photo I use them, even if I`m in Norway
They are pretty cheap and the quality is great, if you choose film development only(no prints) and scanning, you come out pretty good, their scans are good too.

Scanning? So it will show up on the computer?

Well The family business does development too. And something makes me feel real good about helping them out.

But if they go under, which is entirely possible, I really appreciate the tips.

That is sooo awesome, and looks like a lot of fun

lychee?!?!

Looks too small to be a Durian, too big to be a Rambutan, too spiny to be a chirimoya or guanabana... Some sort of exotic lychee?

Nope, it's the seed pod from datura inoxia... AKA Jimson Weed/deadly nightshade/etc. The flowers bloom at night, slump and fall off after a few days, that that spiky seed pod about the size of a golfball forms, then it explodes and the seeds go everywhere.
