Surreal scene from the rocks at Bonnet Point in Narragansett, RI.

Honestly I was not very happy with the first roll from my new Holga 120WPC panoramic pinhole camera. I over-exposed many images and my composition was way off due to the irrelevant site lines at the top of the camera. For my next roll I will be sure to under-expose and compensate for the inacurrate site lines. This was approximately a 12 second exposure.

Created using my new Holga 120WPC with Illford 100 Delta Pro film. Photo scanned with an Epson Perfection V700. No digital manipulation other than dust & scratch removal.

    I've been eager to see the limo at work. I like this but I expect the next roll will be even better now that you know what it can do.

    Rachel, it's because I am a perfectionist! Becky says I'm going to go crazy trying to "perfect" plastic cameras...
