Turning water in to wine

I recently tried the method of red scaling. At first, my paranoia kicked in which made me hesitant to try it out but I thought what the heck, As far as I know, experimenting on different methods is part of lomography so I pushed on with my plan.

I came out with a few decent shots using my Holga 120fn (with Fuji Superia ISO400 film) and for starters, I should say that I did fairly well. Here are some of my photos:

"My first attempt in turning water in to wine."


"I love the shadows."

"Outdoor shots: Recommended for red scale films."


Right now, I've grown tired of using ordinary films, I'm planning to buy a couple of slides and medium formats to pop those lomo colors out, those xpro'ed saturations are what appealed to me in the first place, and so the hunt for my preferred films (Fuji Velvia, Provia and kodak Elite) continues in my journey in this Lomographic life.

What film did you use? 220 film (like the 120 film but without the paper backing)? Or 120 film (and you removed the paper backing?) :D

I used 355mm film with 135 adapter for Holga.
