wow a camera can change a style while keeping the spirit, I like this, very daring Blue ;)

Excellent color picture, you are very close, "in" the scene, and sharp ;).
The huge contrast is well controlled (i like pastels coming from overexposure). I'm a bit disturbed by the left blueish (you could easily remove) but this gives a "vintage kodacolor" mood to the picture :-)

Neat vintage color moment with lots of visual indicators . . along with the polka dots !

Just great Sharon, is that the Coast Mountains in the background?

The waiting is the hardest part but delivers the best pictures. Great scenery & brilliant perspective, Sharon. A beautiful picture that reminds of one of my favourite photographers, Anthony Hernandez. Thanks for this one. All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

How I love the look of toy cameras! This guy should consider pole dancing, or it would be an awful waste of such a great pole
8 Aug 2009 4:11pm
very cool shot, the man is just watching in the good direction, along the perspective of your picture, and that gives a very strong capture here, congratulations

These latest captures are so nice. I like your greyscale, but you're achieving such delicious colors. I can imagine how much you must be enjoying that new camera.

@sherri: Thanks so much Sherri. Yes, I am loving my new camera and the freedom I feel when using it, much like when I use the Holga as well. The adventure with colour film has been fun indeed :)
Took me a minuter to locate the polka dots for some reason... nice street shot

Love what you are doing with the colors with this camera. Outstanding.

It's this twee (not sure whether this is the right word in English) pole and this man leaning against it, this contradiction, in some sense , something thay you saw, something that is taking me long to find out...

A wonderful creative and colourful shot Sharon! Looks almost like a capture from the 60's. Well done! ;-)
8 Aug 2009 9:39pm
Amazing colors... and the atmosphere of the place!!! Very lovely feel of the 60's or 70's! Thanks for the wonderful treat Sharon.:-)

Such a cool look on this shot. Lovely colors and good eye for detail...

I really like this old style look/shot.
A picture which has no age !!

Polka dots and white balloons! Looks like a hot day in Vancouver.
9 Aug 2009 9:03pm
@Howard F.: Thank you :) Although it has cooled off considerably it has been hot here like you would not believe. Hoping to get some rain to put out so many forest fires that are out of control here.
Timeless shot, i like so much these colors and your quote too ! Very well done :)

An excellent observation. He is oblivious to the fact that he's surrounded by hot pink and poka dots.
