I'm doing a late night photo dump of pictures I've taken with a lens that was made from an upcycled disposable film camera lens, like what you'd buy at a drug store. The results have been interesting. I went into it with high hopes and I quickly learned I had to calm my expectations.

The real fun in it is how much the photos look like a special kind of 1990s vintage. It reminds me of when I had a 120 pocket film camera in like... 1996. It's hit or miss and if the photos look cool, it's because of composition and luck more than anything.

I am finding that adjusting the lighting and contrast in post creates some very interesting, creative results that I actually do like. I'm working on getting over the frustration of photos not being as crisp as I like because, again, this is a shitty upcycled 35mm point and shoot lens.
