a few diana's from Rome..

When i was in Pompeii a few years ago i shot 35 mm film and loved it, this time i decided to bring 120 film cuz i figured that format would suit Rome better than 35 mm. So i brought with me my diana f+ and a new red holga.

a messy diana adventure... my diana camera is my favorite 120 camera and ive always had great results with it... but this trip is the first time it has had issues as seen in the photos below... it was above +30C degrees and it looks like the film melted in a few places..my purse was probably +500 degrees... the film was expired and had also been sitting in the camera for over a year cuz i loaded it up once but never got around to use it. and while i was in the forum, the winding spool was stuck, i had to use force to move the film forward. overall, it was messy and i wasnt sure if i, the film or the camera would make it thru! i dont function well in heat, and i missed the framing every time..until next time...!

autumn holga's...

Sorbus aucuparia

Betula 

yeah this lomography color 400 film is really good. and this is another holga camera, i have a couple of them.

a few holga's from stockholm...

ive tried one of Lomography's color films (400 i believe) and i must say it is easily one of my favorites, it doesnt show all of its potential in these gray and dim photos but yeah the colors are so bright and strong! this was also a first test roll with this new holga camera.

film from Paris..

the photos are really poor quality cuz i used a different photo lab than the lab i usually use. seriously, the prints are so awful..and the black frames are cropped out too....big no no.... im gonna have to get them printed again. I always use the wide angle lens for the diana camera, its really great. Technical issues aside.... i love Paris.

harmony camera at the dig last summer.

the gorgeous girls!

and the cutest dog!

a camera called Harmony.

most of this first film is from last autumn and this spring..the shots are...

the owls are not what they seem.

double exposure with color flashes.

the blue looks like neon blue. so cool.

a happy diana and a favorite house.

easter. part 3.

i don't know what happened with the film here. surprise.

the photo in the bottom right is my favorite. haha they are so cute sitting

in the snow sunbathing. it was a really good day.

my favorite 120 film from this past year.

not only are the photos good but they are also a few of my favorite things...

twin peaks, horses, gothic medieval buildings and my sister.
these were taken with a diana and a holga.

fire walk with me

{L}ast time i was in the states, i visited Rydell High in california, this time we went to Twin Peaks. i've been watching the series for the first time this summer -it is amazing. i'm glad the series has somehow managed to escape me up until now, it turned up in my life at the perfect time. the fact that we went there was such a funny coincidence. my friends, almost all of them, are huge fans so naturally we had to go. We only went to North Bend and Snoqualmie, about 30 minutes from Seattle. we had cherrypie and a damn fine cup of coffee (the character Dale Cooper was right about that one!) at Twede's Café, which is the Double R Diner in the series. what else can i say... see the series or bob will come for you.

We went in to Seattle in the late evening/night, a few hours before our flight back, and what can i say, we love the cheesecake factory. This was our last stop for this time. we loved it here. as always. only good things!

i'm very happy with the diana's, using the 55mm wide angle lens. i could never have gotten both the house and the waterfall in the shot, without it.

montana camping.

We went by car, about an hour outside of Missoula. The starry sky in the night was really cool, because i didnt really recognize it. When i was in lolo, outside Missoula, i spotted the Plough pretty much at the same place as in umeå. Maybe iso 400 or 800 would have been better but i took a chance anyway with iso 100. these are with the 55mm wide angle lens.

diana roll, Missoula

stinas's turn in crocket.

sister

this was an experiment test roll with lenses,
double exposures and colorflashes.

beach 2012.

this summer has almost been raining away, so today, when friends are visiting from the south, we seized the sunny day and went to the beach. i could need a little work on my tan, but what's the point when it's raining most of the time. so no tan for me this summer.

my favorite view.
