Photography This Sunday

i know exactly what a holga is and what lomo camera is. i just refuse to accept that vignetting, sharpness fall off, added saturation, lack of contrast, lens artifacts, uncontrolled flare etc etc = creativity or you suddleny become a better photographer when you use one. the argument that some people use of " it makes you take your time and think more about your images" is bullshit, just take your time and think more about your images with your 'normal' camera.
a holga placed in the hands of a monkey doesn't make a creative monkey.

I never said you become a better photographer because you use a Holga, and that certainly is not my opinion.
As I said before, it was by way of explaining why I''m 'taking snaps' if I'm a 'professional photographer'. I simply meant it to explain that what I wanted to do here is take some photos for fun, rather than the (semi) 'professional' stuff I'm commissioned to do.

I don't think your rant was aimed at me, particularly as I haven't ever used that argument, but I apologise for hitting a nerve here.

I"m thinking I'll just leave it.
