A view down a tree-lined street and sidewalk, with a light dusting of snow; a person walking their dog is visible in the distance, and some of the view is obscured by the classic Holga diffraction flare from the sun.

Vertical bars of a metal gate on a lookout dominate this image; an abandoned padlock is secured to one of the bars. Beneath and beyond the lookout, a river flows to the horizon, lined with snow-covered banks and bare trees.

"Field of Stars". This was made (circa 1950) with a strange 6x9 plastic camera known as a "Stylex"; from the Herbert George Camera Company of Chicago. Even stranger was the 1968-expired "DandiPan" film that created all those "stars". #expiredfilm #filmphotography
A black and white photo of a silhouetted figure standing on a small outcropping of rocks by the ocean. The sky is full of small white dots resembling stars, the result of the decaying fifty plus year expired film used to take this shot.

I live in a winter-dominated climate; as the saying goes, "eight months of winter and four months of poor sledding." The first snow of the season is arriving here today and I like how it simplifies the landscape. Here's a photo from two winters ago.

Brightly lit spruce trunks line the right side of a path, with other spruces in the shadows at left. This image was made by taking one photo, walking down the path a few steps and taking another (without advancing the film), and walking down the path again and taking more the same way.

Another wonderful image from Jim Rohan

An image from my series of images (and handmade book) titled "Silver Lake in Winter". #holga #photobook
Black and white square photo made with a Holga plastic camera. I am on the shore looking down at the surface of a frozen lake. Branches that resemble bare trees are on the right side of the image. On the surfacce of the frozen water is a crack in the ice that resembles another bare tree.
