Downtown Long Beach (Sunday, January 11th, 2009)

I didn’t get out much lately since I, like many others, have one of those annoying colds that won’t go away. Since I don’t have anything new I’ll post this Holga photo from the series I did last year. The one where I forgot to switch from bulb mode back to normal.

This photo was shot from the car window (I was the passenger this time). Film used: Kodak Portra 400VC. The colors are a bit off (more than usual) since I had to tweak settings in Lightroom quite a bit on top of the tweaking done during the scan process. I also used Lightroom to clean up dust specs. I must say that it does a pretty good job. One thing less I might have to do in Photoshop.

    I love the cookie-cutter, very typical suburban office tower photographed in this very creative way.

    Love the colors and soft-focus holga effect.

    This is nice, Sabine. The building has a slightly fake, surreal appearance – groovy!
