While I don't think it's my best pic, it's one that I am very happy with. I developed the film at home, and most of the shots were very underexposed. I also screwed up the development of another roll I took in the same nice so it was a nice achievement.

This one from 2007:

I saw the evening sky outside my office window and ran out with the Holga. The tree looked like it make a good sillouette against the sky and somehow I managed to line it up, miss the big fence below it and not blur the picture. I only found out what I had taken 7 months later when I bought a new scanner and started going though my negs.
This is why I love the Holga.

It's not my best picture techinically but I think it's funny and kind of sentimental. It's got some dust on it but that's from the scanner or the neg because it doesn't show on the lab prints. I like the way the vignette frames the subjects and that the camera has focused sharply on my grandparents actually I'm just impressed that it focuses on anything at all. Although they look posed they actually aren't, any photos I take are always in stealth mode so I never have time to frame the picture or anything like that. I guess I'm "lomo" and all that crap but not on purpose.

All I have are LE Holga frames (for now) so here's one of my faves - stood here for 10 minutes while the surf came precariously close to taking me and the tripod out to sea.

I've walked by and photographed this scene dozens of time with different cameras and always came up empty handed. So this time (much to the amusement of mrs. joe), I just could feel the right combination of camera, film, and filter was in place. So now, i'm happy....

From my first attempt at night shooting with the Holga. This is the worst scan that has ever been made in the history of mankind, to boot.

Not been using Holga for long but love it. I took this on the London Underground a couple of months ago, I'm moving there in Feb and can't wait for all the Holga possibilities in the city !

This is the second Holga shot I ever took. I've only had the camera for a few weeks now and have processed only one roll. This one made me want to take more.

The vinette and the soft focus hooked me.

I like how the clouds look almost fake in this one...one of my first Holga photos. I also like what the cross-processing did to the colors.

This one:

This was from my 2nd roll of film. When I went back to the camera shop, where I had it processed, the guy tried to sell me a holga by showing me my own photo. Weird day.

Both the first film i took at night and also the first X-pro on my holga. I love how the cars made that big white burn-hole down the center, the vignetting and the colour of the sky.

I don't really have a single favorite image but I like this one a lot. The Radir racing slick and the old pinstriped welding helmet represents the old school hot rod garage I was photographing that day. The helmet is cool because it was the guy's father's helmet when he was younger.

Fabulous thread - I hadn't come across it before. So many inspiring photos here of what a Holga is capable of when all the sweet elements come together.
I haven't taken many Holga shots yet, but so far this one is my favourite:

I like it because it turned a scene I've photographed with much frustration over and over again into a fairyscape.

My favorite:

The original print is square, but my scanner chopped some of it off. Anyway, it's my favorite because it was taken in Japan, my favorite country, during a great vacation to see my fiance who is stationed there. I love stairs, and I thought these were so great in their weird setting (in a parking lot in an alley way), and also because they seemingly lead to nowhere. This was the first Holga print I ever did in the darkroom, as well, so it has sentimental value.

I keep going back to this one. It is very ambiguous and allows you to create your own idea of what the photo is about.

I was going to the car after a session of shots. I have the last shot to do to complete the roll. I saw that bike parked in the front of my car. I put my holga on the ground and click the button, et voilà:

I like this one because of the strange border caused by going with no mask. Also, I am addicted to taking photos of viewing scopes.

I think this is a personal favorite for me as it was taken out of the bedroom window of my new studio/apartment. I also like the curvature of the lines running throughout.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite, but this one might be it so far.
edit: Oops, forgot to mention why it's my favorite. This one because a) the double-exposure was entirely accidental, and it lined up in a way I found pleasing, what with the neon floating in air and the strangeness of the dragon dancers after the overlap, and b) even though I'm becoming dissatisfied with the way Fuji Provia cross-processes, it worked out well on this one because of the colors involved.

shot just 3 rolls so far, but this i think is my fave...

...because: for some reason I love that building, Battersea powerstation. I love derelict buildings, and maybe this is the most famous in London. It's iconic. Oh, and because I got a bit lost roaming the area trying to find a decent place to get a shot. Eventually got this one, taken from Chelsea bridge. I really like those lightleaks too.

When I got the holga, this is the style and look I was looking for. Parts in clear and crisp and a bit softness in the rest of the shot. On top of that, it is a shot of my companion in elements that suit us both.
