Finally developed and scanned some more film from Nice. This was Portra 400 in a Holga 120N.

The first two are great; the others have a cool '60s holiday snap vibe to them.

Thanks! Nice definitely had a 60s vibe going on, so it really lent itself to the Holga look.

Yeah, all of these look good in that lomo-type look. I think a lot of time sharpness is vastly overrated. These have feeling to them.

And yes, I tend to agree about sharpness. I don't have anything against it, but I also believe it's not the be-all and end-all of photography. It has a time and a place. This was not it

Love them all. I don't use my holga near enough. I never tried them on my mannequin window shots but have wanted to. Never ran a roll of color through it.

Thanks. I definitely put more b&w through all of my cameras, but I like the way the plastic renders colors for some reason, so it's nice to play with color.
