Diana in Bali

Diana is my camera, more specifically, she is a Diana F+ Lomography camera in classic blue and we are in love. As much as is appropriate for a love between a human and inanimate object, not like this lady. She is a slightly temperamental and unpredictable girl but when she's in the right mood, she is freaking fantastic. And that is enough about my love for my camera - I am starting to get concerned.

Anyhoo, I took Diana with me to Bali and she bought the goods!

Diana in her pinhole setting of the view from our balcony. You whip the lens off and keep the camera steady while you leave the shutter open for anywhere between a few seconds and a few minutes. I think I left this open for about 30 seconds on a slightly overcast day?

Pictures of the local market. I think the bottom one is a double exposure.

One of the bajillion temple doors.

These awesome school boys grabbing some lunch from a street vendor outside their school. The uniforms were pretty sweet with those vests. Hah.

Myself looking particularly pregnant thanks to a gust of wind.

These girls were sitting braiding each others hair and watching the tourists walk on by.

And this is to prove that Diana doesn't always quite produce the goods. Also, that you need to wind up your film tightly or you'll get light leaks like these ones. We'll just pretend that I put them there purposefully to make for a rustic look.

Hope you enjoyed these Diana pics! I think I'll have to show pictures from my Dad's Olympus M-1 1971 camera next. Just because I can.
