"A Sunny Day & a Light Leak"

#LofiPhotography

'Panoramic' shot by exposing two negatives with Lomography Diana F+ and its 'panoramic mask'. Centered big light leak/reflections by the pretty poor 75mm plastic lens.

When I was tidying my studio I found two #Holga lenses, which I bought years ago and had forgotten about completely.
The lenses are known for their vignetting, blur, light leaks, lack of sharpness, distortions and generally low-fidelity.
They are interesting. Must experiment more.

唱什麼？想不起來。
