UNDERWATER HOLGA AND MULTI-EXPOSURES by stouf
“Shoot things on earth and re-use your film underwater… Shoot buildings and people swimming between frames…”
This goes to show how Holga knows no rules, and tells you to just click it. Don’t forget to share your medium format rebellions! Our piggies always love the rebel types.

One question though...how do you take it underwater without ruining it? Is there some case you use?

I would guess he has put a Fisheye lens on it (or at least it looks like that) and then, in all likelihood, has simply put the Holga in a plastic baggy, which must be the easiest way of finding a 'case' for the holga.

could a ziploc baggie work with a fisheye? lol

mmm... i could be wrong, but i think he/she meant to take pictures with your holga ON LAND and then double the same film underwater with the Krab or frogeye. hence the "shoot BUILDINGS and people swimming between frames." Aren't many buildings under water that I know of, but i wish there were!

I'd be curious to know how you can load a 120 film in an LCA or a frogeye....
He is using an ewa-marine housing as well as the frame counter he designed for that purpose. Very clever and safe!...
The "how to" is in his blog... which is worth a visit for those who never had a look at it. And while you are there have a look at his albums and videos! Stouf is an amazing, out of the ordinary lomographer!...
These shots are incredible! well done Stouf!
