    A Self Portrait of The Photographer As A Holga Photographer....

    I did this on Sunday at the Utah Arts Fest.
    Just thought I'd share.
    I was going for the "artist look".
    Am I am "artist looking enough"?

    Don't artists wear a berets, rather than ball caps?

    You have the earnest artist look nailed, though.

    You're staring into space....

    Got that distant, starving artist thing going...

    Yep. I'd say you nailed it buddy!

    very ----artsy


    the Holga looked distinguished and---oh yeah you did too! ;)

    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."    .

    Goodness, no! You need a beret, a form-fitting black turtleneck sweater, goatee, spiked crew cut, edgy angular glasses, cigarette, and an angst-filled yet smug look on your face. And a highball glass in your hand.

    And you should be perched on a stool in front of some freaky wall hanging.


    Right now you look like a photographer.
