Definitely not something you would get with the Holga! Very sleek.

Lots of cloud here but just as it began we had a ewe going through a difficult birth & we were a bit preoccupied...it looked fantastic though...so is this shot !!

Awesome job. I got up at 5:45am, but was a little too late. Awesome job!

True to form we got cloud.
Which is what happens here if there's anything going on of a Celestial nature.

Oh, this is beautiful Susan. A great capture.

Just think a few hundred years ago it was regarded with superstition!
