A piece of life spent between the United States and Switzerland, punctuated by brief trips back to France, my homeland.
These images from another age were created with a full-of-surprises, silver-based camera. Medium-format, incredibly cheap and made-in-China, the Holga camera has the peculiarity of being unusable until its light leaks have been sealed. That said, you might notice that peculiar beams of light invited themselves onto some photographs, sometimes successfully, thereby strengthening their impact.

Aline, nice use of the Holga. Thought you might enjoy my "Diana" which makes Holga look like Hasselblad! Check it out. Frank
