Summer racing has started at Portland International Raceway. I'm looking forward to continuing my series on cycling using toy/plastic cameras. I'm really not sure why I'm choosing toy cameras for a project that is clearly suited for digital with telephotos. I guess I enjoy the challenge of working with less.

ReplyDeleteI did a series of sport Holga photos that concentrated on cycling. It's interesting the different view that you have with your Holga. If you want to see how I saw the sport click here.
