I received an unsolicited DM on discord from one of my keyboard friends asking for my shipping address. We are running a gift exchange but he said he wasn't my secret santa so I was curious what was up... Intrigued I shared my info and started waiting for the surprise, and what a wonderful surprise it was! A Holga and a few rolls of film!  I used to have one back in the day but didn't end up keeping it since it was tough for me to scan 120 film but now that I'm all set up for it I'm excited to use it.  I went out to a park by the lake where I went in my "Mamiya m645: new (to me)" post, with the colors changing here finally, hoping to grab some nice tones oh the 645 and give the Holga a run.  Shockingly - not really - the m645 had winding issues yet again, causing some frame overlapping but the Holga performed admirably in b/w.  The Holga has a 6x4.5 mask too so I guess with the latest issue with the m645 body from KEH, I will just be happy to have a working me...

Downtown Streets

 I hit downtown with the Bessa R, color skopar 35mm and a couple rolls of HP5. Rated the first one at 800 and the 2nd one at 1600. There were a surprising number of folks around considering it was still pretty cool out. I have never been a huge fan of downtown Dallas but I think the issue is I have not really spent enough time to properly walk around. There's a lot of little restaurants and things to see, it can be every bit as metropolitan as other big cities. Anyhow enjoy the photos.

We set out for my in-law's and I had with me several rolls of film and my M4-P. A friend had given me several interesting rolls of film as a surprise so I was eager to try out some new stuff. As soon as we got through security, I loaded up a roll of Ilford Delta 3200. Despite its name, the real ISO of this film is around 1000 but I had heard people got good results exposing for about 1250 ISO and developing in HC-110, so that's what I planned for. Here's my favorites from this roll: My in-law's live near a state forest in Indiana and my wife and her dad and I took a hike on the trails there, the weather was not exactly ideal but it was a really nice hike, and there's definitely some scenic spots along the way. I finished out the roll of 3200 here. I stepped in a mud bog right at the very end of the hike d'oh I'm not impressed at all with the performance of Delta 3200, even when shot at this speed. I feel like the grain is so extreme, and I'd rather shoot...
