When I dropped by the photo lab an hour before my scheduled pick up, I wasn't expecting my photos to be late. The harassed staff told me to come back in an hour, and then in an hour called me. The woman developing and scanning my negatives onto a CD was a bit shaken by my film-- it was overlapping, crazy, weird colors, overshadowed, too dense... I had a terse phone conversation in the Nordstrom lobby, trying to explain to her that I wanted all of these things to happen. Unfortunately, one of the rolls had gone wonky so only a few frames turned out on those. The rest were fine.
And they look pretty cool, I think. I realized after I got them that I had screwed up one thing on my Holga, so the pictures overlap rather than having a clear boundary. Meh. I still am falling completely in love with the color saturation and the dreamy edges of each picture. It's a total shame it costs so much to develop, but cross processing + holga = lurve.

some of those pictures have come out really well! I remember when i got a roll developed once and the lab said "i think you have a problem with your camera there are light leaks over all your pictures."
i was like, "naa thats fine" :)
