Irony and Serendipity intersect when profesionnal photographers swoon over a cheap crappy Chinese camera that applies interesting effects on accident…
Slow Tools
As I mentioned in a previous post, I took the Holgas and film to Mexico City. I thought I’d shoot a lot of film. Not the case. We were moving too fast and there were four of us, although two of us were photographers. And of course, the centro in Mexico City is a fast moving place too. The Holga is a slow tool. And I was reminded once again that for me photography is a solitary pursuit. When I look back at all the work that makes me happy, it wasn’t street shooting. It was when I could wander and observe and kind of get into some kind of flow. I think a slow walk through Colonia Condesa or Roma in DF might work with the Holga. Maybe next time.
