Hey, Hot Shot! Contender: Christopher Barbour
Liminal Echoes No.3 by HHS entrant Christophe Barbour
I pretty much just like this photo, by HHS entrant Christopher Barbour. It’s a little bit lonely and a little bit sad, but it has this great bright focal point — that pink blur that I can only imagine is a carousel or a funny little house or a strange statue. Barbour says that he used a Holga pinhole camera and Fuji NPH 400 film. No additions or manipulations outside of the camera.

This is very nice. Dig the composition and dreamy quality of the soft focus, etc.

This is great. I love how I didn’t know it was a Holga right away until I read Jen’s statment. Christopher James always mentions the Holga as a way to get out of a photographic slump…..cleary Holga helps, this image is fabulous! xoxox
