    Ooh- he looks a little bit orange-
    funny double exposure lines in the bottom right corner,
    wonder what that is?
    Is it on other shots too?

    When you release the button on a Holga the shutter disk moves back into place. On some Holgas, light can get in if the arm inside is not fully covering the hole as the disk spins past.

    You can reduce the effect if you cover the lens before you release the button although I have always thought of this as one of the charms of a Holga.

    This is shot taken directly from camera, no post processing done at all, so if it’s a bit orange, it’s probably just dow to the expired film i used and given light on the day..

    I embrace every fault this camera has with open arms…

    Thanks for the feedback..

    Is it shot on transparency?

    All colour negatives have to be processed-
    in fact, the only global controls available for printing are exposure and colour balance,
    and somebody has to make those decisions,
    or leave them up to a machine…

    Automatic printers and scanners will be thrown by the predominant colours in the scene,
    and will need some adjustment-

    I’ve seen people claim colour shifts for out of date film before,
    but they’re more likely to be caused by whoever did the scanning,
    and whether the scans were made using the correct settings for the film mask.
    In date film can show exactly the same effects-

    Interesting explanation Dave, I don’t have a Holga,
    but I do remember the shutter, now that you mention it-

    Nice image but strange . . .

    Is he getting ready to jump forward off the tank?
