Looking for out of focus examples

view profile

squarefrog says:

So I'm redesigning the squarefrog site, and I'm looking for some example images of out of focus pictures taken with a Holga. Say for example you took a close up with your holga set to Mountains.

Ideally I need 4 images in total, you will receive full credit, plus you get that warm feeling of helping the Holga community :)

Reply here, if you are interested.

Thanks for your time!

Blurry, I think I shot on bulb and panned. Not sure if this will work.

Thanks Konah, but I've got some bulb ones. Mainly looking for out of focus ones. They are really difficult to find on flickr!

Paul I`ve just searched through my photos and found a few, I`m gonna stick them on my stream and you can have a look and use any that you fancy as I dont know how to share them with you on this discussion, I`m a luddite! Let me know if your going to use any if thats ok and I`ll leave them up, otherwise I`ll remove them. Cheers

No probs Paul, my names Tom, look forward to having a photo of mine used for something for the first time and on your site which I read all of whilst I waited for my first Holga to come in the post, it is most helpful. Do I need to send you a copy by email or something or can you take it straight off here? As I said I`m a technophobe and a luddite so I have no idea of what you are capable!!

I'm capable of taking over the world!! At least thats what my mum said..

Nah I just use the pic from flickr, it's easier that way as it's already at the right size.

So whats the best way to credit you? I like to use a real name if possible, as its less likely to change :) whats your surname Tom?

I'm trying to finish up the relaunch, and ideally I'd like to roll out the new site within a month - that's when your picture will appear.

Cool, it`s Tom Brereton, and your right I`m not planning on changing it any time soon. Looking forward to the new site Paul and really excited at being credited, as my wife pointed out even though it is in the out of focus section. As my friend Charlie always says though focus is overrated!

Chick Dastardly says:

squarefrog as Chick Dastardly i reckon, do they link through? if they do I'll stick it on the newer flickr account cos I'm eventually going to have that for my lomos and the old one for family and friends tings yaknow

Yep that's why i moved down here! :) miss oop north tho it has to be said! but bristol is like a northern city but down south, so a tad more sun (not today tho)

squarefrog says:

~Chick Dastardly~ ok - yes they do link through, but the new site isn't going to be live for a few weeks yet, so no rush bud. Just let me know once you've done the switcherooni.

I like the idea of a northern city down south. I'm just not that jazzed by the whole London Island thing. Although having said that, I spent some time in Brighton recently visiting family and I thoroughly loved it. I could happily live there.
