Critique Welcomed Not For The Weak Hearted!

Holga lenses are f2.8?

I agree with Rob. Its hard to believe this image is from a Holga. (Except for the vignetting.) Nice one, Rense.

Ha, Brian, thank you.... And no, of course not, Holgas are sold as F8, but are said to be more like F13 to F22 or so.... They are really dark, leaving the photographer with a useless viewfinder...

Not sure what you mean about the viewfinder, @Rense Haveman. I have several Holga 120 cameras. The viewfinder seems OK to me. (Clear and big enough to see my subject through, at least.)

But this is a Holga lens mounted on my Pentax K5, and I have to shoot in bright sunlight to be able to see anything through the viewfinder...:)
