Just a few shots taken with my Holga, a few with the fisheye lens attached.






The Distillery;  Toronto




My sister Cheryl and my son Jake when we went strawberry picking last weekend.




Jake at the strawberry farm.




Grenadier Pond, High Park;  Toronto








High Park swimming pool.  I wasn't sure which of the two shots of the slide I liked better, so I posted them both.




Waiting for the Spadina streetcar.

Nice!  I may have to get one of those fisheye adapters now.

Thanks Captain!  I got my fisheye lens from Urban Outfitters for $32 Cdn.  It's just a little piece of plastic that fits right over the Holga lens.  It would also fit over most SLR lenses I think.  My son has used it with our little digital point-and-shoot with great effect.

Summer is Holga time. I like the portrait of your son. Seems like that should go on a wall somewhere.

Thanks Larry, I'll have to see about that telephoto for the Holga!

Thanks Wayne, I really like that shot too!  So much for not shooting directly into the sun, eh?

And Jorn, thanks;  my son likes that picture so much he wants it for his Facebook page.  I think that's a compliment, right?
