Blanks 3, Back and Front

The Sunset Strip in West Hollywood has a lot going on in terms of billboards, so much so that it that there is one property devoted to nothing but. This one, on the east side of the Strip, has an eye-level sign, blank, backing on a west-facing one.

Blanks 2

This one is at the corner of Sunset and Bronson, across the street from KTLA and usually has a billboard advertising the station up. The east facing side has been blank for a while and I like its rough finish. Not sure if that's a ray of light glinting off it or something to do with the Holga's lens...

Blanks, Part 1

I've been noticing a lot of blank billboards around town over the last few months, and thought I'd try and capture some of them. This is the first in an ongoing series of those images, a billboard on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood that once housed an ad for Yahoo that won an award a few years back.

Shaky Technicolor

Have had black and white in the camera for the last few rolls. The blurs and jiggles appeal to me less in color, though I like how this one of the new Technicolor building on Hollywood Boulevard turned out. Am three images away from dropping more rolls off for processing, so a new batch ought to be coming shortly.

Chilly Trees

Big Sky, December.

Another roll working its way - a bit too slowly - through the Holga. Have been working on a theme and it takes a while to track down (or stumble upon) appropriate subjects.

Bouncing Letters

On a construction site in Orange County. It's been a while, but I'm guessing the stencil on the cab of the vehicle is double painted, because noting else in the image jumped. Unless it's another Holga phenomenon I hadn't come across yet.
