Time to contribute I guess. Taken with my not so great but still nice Panasonic DMC-TZ1.

All are from the same church in a time span of 4 minutes while I fiddled around with the settings. Third picture makes it looks closest to what it looks like through the human eye.

Hardest thing I've noticed is getting at the right spot at the right time with your camera. So often I'm on walks with the dog and see awesome shots I could have made had I only bothered bringing it with, while should I take it with me either nothing interesting happens or everything interesting gets something ugly just in the way.

Indeed. I was outside with my buddies smoking a hookah and playing cards. Every time I heard the *thump* from the neighbors shooting off fireworks, I'd grab my camera, hold it above my head and hold the shutter open until the fireworks exploded. :p

heheh, does the Holga have a fixed shutter speed and aperture, or is there any variation possible?

Yeah, that smoke. We call it 'clouds'.

No variation possible at all unless you mod it to change the aperture.

Here's a picture of the shutter mechanism.

I got the trial just to check out, not really impressed. I haven't tried printing anything, but their claims of 1000% percent are greatly exaggerated...

Well, considering they should easily print 40 inches without resizing, you're only upping them about 60 percent... Although I suppose if they're digital, they probably aren't as large as 6x6/4.5 film negs so you'll be blowing them up even further.

I've been playing with Alienskin Exposure recently. The color film filters are cool, but the B&W film filters are all but useless.
