so i confess… since last week i became addicted in exploring etsy & asides from finding sweet treasures… i had a delicious time in gathering them.
i just found a way to connect to more people, to know them… to explore etsy’s so-many-times unexplored talents.
today… & from now on, i shall present you {thursday’s sweet treasures} to share those findings with you.
first… a few things about me.
~ i love photography.
~ i love lomography.
~ i love my holga.
a few days ago someone posted this question on holga’s flickr group {why do you use a holga?} and although sometimes it is hard to explain… i just came with this answer… & it felt just right.
i shoot with holga, because…
1) i fell for her in the minute my sweet boyfriend gave her to me
2) she is totally unpredictable
3) she is the one who decides
4) she has flaws
5) there is nothing compared to the thrilling emotion of going to the lab and ask for developing and waiting for results… just like a little girl
6) because you are always exploring
7) because i feel important with her on my neck, even next to someone holding a canon 5d
therefore, this first {thursday’s sweet treasuries} is about {lomo love}, although i realize that this is not the common photography philosophy among my flickr friends & maybe most readers. hope you discover a new world.
oh, almost forgot… if anyone of you is also a confessed addict to lomography, feel free to {follow} me on tumblr. you may find the link on your right… under {lomo twiggs}.
see you tomorrow for a fresh interview {at home, away from home}… with a very well-known lady.

I LOVE Lomos!
I just realized I follow you on Flickr but had never read your blog before. So now I'm also a blog follower of yours & a Tumblr follower. :)

Thanks for choosing me for this treasury. It's hard to explain my relationship with my Holga to those who haven't used toy cameras before. I cherish my busted, broken, worn-out Holga as much, if not more, than my Canon 40D. I believe some of my best work has come out of that little plastic lens.
