Some Vivitar Images

[almo]

I was downtown the other day and I decided to only take my Vivitar 2mp P&S camera that is not...well it's just a piece of crap really. But I have found that when used in the same frame of mind as a Holga I can get some pretty interesting shots.

Opions and comments are always welcome....

Hi Almo,
The third image has a very speical effect. As I scrolled the screen down, the image was vividly moving. I was very surprised.

Thanks Yoyo, I didn't like that image at first, but that is the very reason I decided to post it....

I commend you for trying almo, you are getting it!
But I think you should try subjects that are bolder in color, form or line.
These photographs, in my opinion don't quite cut it, they are close.
I suggest stuff like that, because as you know by viewing my stuff and Megan's that "toy cameras" soften the image.
Keep at it!
You are "getting it"!

Thanks Brian, I certainly respect your opinion. I agree with you one some of the pics, but not on others. I really like the arrow and the staircase. I guess i souldn't have really called it a series as it really isn't that at all. They are just some images from my first attempts at using my Vivitar in this way. It was an X-mas present from my GF, and it just turned out to be way sucky. It was not suposed to be that way but it was, so this is how I am making the best of it.

Thanks!
