    Wow, looks like an actual painting! what's the trick behind this look?

    @taulantcavalry thanks -- this is using an infrared-sensitive film (Agfa Aviphot 200, sold by Reflx Lab as their Pan 200 film, same thing as Rollei Superpan 200) with an R72 filter over the lens. The R72 filter brings out the infrared qualities, making anything green look white. Normally with a Holga you'd need to use a tripod and bulb mode with that filter and film, but I pushed the film to ISO 1600. With the filter on, I was able to expose as if it was ISO 50 or thereabouts, which worked handheld since there was just enough light.
