Halo

There's a jar on our porch (which I think Underdog left out there after she used it in the house to capture and release a spider), and I keep taking pictures of it in different light and with different cameras. (I'm of the "If I keep buying more technology, I'll get better" school. All hail capitalism.)

This one is during late afternoon, with a Holga camera and Illford HP5+ film. The shot would be completely devoid of interest but for the halo, which I only saw after the film was developed; the viewfinder on a Holga is more or less useless, given that it's not through the lens and is apparently composed of pieces of broken soda bottles near the Holga factory in China.

I just developed several rolls of film from the Holga, but I'll avoid posting all of them at Datacloud (as I did in my excitement over my first two rolls last month) to spare those of you who aren't interested in my fumbling photographic skills. But if you're amused, check my pages at Flickr.
