Santa Barbara-based Greg Lawler shoots images that exude a whimsical sense of joy. He often turns his lens to the brilliant landscapes of central California, drawing inspiration from the vibrant energy and spectacular colors of the Pacific Coast. www.greglawler.com

This shot was taken with an inexpensive, plastic Holga® camera that was modified to accept 35mm film. Using 35mm in the Holga (which is designed for medium format 120 film) results in the large image circle spilling beyond the sprocket holes to the very edge of the film. The Holga also tends to leak light, which caused the cool flares at the top right and bottom left of the image. Essentially this is about as low tech as you can get without using a pinhole camera (which is also a lot of fun).
