Once I nudged a canoe through that water,
letting its paddle lift, drip.
I was sucked down smaller than the sound
of the dropping, looked out
from where I had vanished.

  • Michael, superb series with the holga!

    Thanks very much! I lucked out with this roll: the shadows in the woods and the sun on the river made for some interesting light, and my models were completely oblivious to me. This is one of my first outings with Acufine (acquired from Ted Sherarts, a Flickr pal up in St. Cloud), which is fast becoming a favorite developer: the negatives are so much denser and more contrasty than Diafine.
