more holgas by celeste

photos by Celeste. Taken with her Holga, on Ilford black and white film.

As promised on Monday, here are some of my favourite photos from the Photoswap I talked about. The one with the old couple is so sweet! It inspires me to try and take photos of strangers (in a non creepy way of course!). See more Photoswap photos in the Flickr pool. See the ones uploaded by me (much-love) for more of Celeste's beautiful Holga photos. See the ones uploaded by Celeste (extracelestial) to see the photos I took for her.

One more thing: do check out Celeste's blog (Wanderlust) for a blog post featuring my film photos, as I share the things I love about Melbourne.
