of russian spy cameras
As long as I can remember I have always wanted to live in a different era. Perhaps during the heyday of Federico Fellini's career, like a misplaced character from one of his films, leading a very 8 1/2 life. In that spirit, I have been experimenting of late with a Holga camera given to me & my husband by one incredibly talented photographer. Or as I like to call it, my Russian Spy Camera. I adore the timeless & antiquated quality of the photos...
