The World Through A Plastic Lens

by Adam Scott

For more years then we'd care to count, the Holga has held a firm and unyielding grasp on our psyche. Try as we might, we just can't resist its gleaming plastic lens, its foolish too-big body, its mind-blowing 120 film format, and its sheerly beautiful dreamlike images. It's safe to say that we, along with hundreds of thousands of Lomographers across the world, are obsessed.

In honor of this all-consuming passion, we've created the greatest and only book dedicated to the global Lomographic pursuit of Holga mastery. Edited by Adam Scott, "The World Through A Plastic Lens" is absolutely bursting with the finest medium-format Holga masterpieces that the world has ever seen. We're talking over 500 images – submitted by the Lomographic community at large and hand-edited into a dazzling stream of soft-focus, cross-processed, light-leaked, multiple-exposed, and pseudo-panoramic masterpieces. And sprinkle on top of that a full list of tips and tricks – from old faves to ones ain‘t no one ever heard of, revealing Holga addict profiles, and a beautiful hardcover binding that directly recalls the Holga's beautiful plastic faux-leather wrapping. Get a copy, clear your schedule, and join the obsession.
