[HOLGA120+] Chapter 1: Athens

Ok some showcase of lomography now! Holga 120+ refers to the upgraded Holga 120N. A Superheadz 35mm adaptor was used which allowed 35mm films to be taken. But the main purpose for the upgrade was to take delightful SPROCKET photos!!!




First lomo taken on Holga 120+!!! okay not much to shout about but the sprockets are so cool haha. The overexposed portion on the left was due to that part being exposed during loading of the film. I captured a frame here to be economical hahaha.




Took another frame for this scene, which was from the balcony of the apartment my fellow adventurers and I were staying at in Greece. A quiet neighbourhood here with a small neighbourhood park downstairs. A mini mart nearby was our water point. Water...turns out to be very important for Greek summers. The hot and dry weather.




This is the famous Syntagma Square, also the site of the Athens riot last year which occured the day we left Athens for Mykonos. This was taken in the morning, nothing much going on yet. Syntagma Square market sells many kinds of mediterranean snacks and nuts.




Fellow adventurers in Syntagma Square!




This was some kind of drain on top of the Parthenon hill. Notice the nice light leaks on the left.



On our way to The Parthenon!!! Could see The Parthenon itself from the bottom of the hill. The hill turned out to be a very long trek up.



Will upload Chapter 2 very soon! Thanks for reading! Have you visited Athens before? Leave a comment below!
