Description
Because there is no greater sensation than being alive.This is one of my first colour shots with my holga, ok its not the best image in the world, but i love it, its a perfect reminder of the many many afternoons I spent at Gwithian nr Hayle in Cornwall just sitting/walking hours on end just clearing my head and watching the sea, it made me feel so alive.

I really like this image. The color is so vivid. And the fact that most of it is out of focus kind of gives it a nostalgic quality, almost as if it's the photograph of a memory.

This is pretty amazing. I'm quite surprised at the color (both saturation and brightness) variation towards the edges of the lens.
I like how it is composed in 1/4s, the first being grass, second water, third clouds, and (a little less than a 1/4) blue sky. It creates a pair of focal points, on the bush in the grass, and the super saturated light blue above the big cloud in the middle of the sky.
This is one of the most interesting holga shots I've seen, as it doesn't really look quite as distorted as the others, but it definitely yields an otherworldly, falling-into-a-trance feeling to the shot.

do holga traditionally have this out of focus quality?
