Digital life

I had a dream last night in which a Mamiya 6 with a digital back ended up in my hands. It was completely impossible to use, there was this big lens on it with buttons that I needed to push, but I didn't know how. Anyway I couldn't take any photos with it.

I now own a Ricoh GRD, which is pretty awesome since it's basically like a digital version of the Kisekae, i.e. a very compact camera with a 28mm fixed lens. The only difference is that this has fully manual aperture/shutter control, a proper glass lens... oh and it can take like 700 pictures at a time because IT'S DIGITAL.

I want to move past the Holga for medium format stuff. I've been eying up the Mamiya C330, and Blue_Onion* only makes me want it more. I really like the way the light falls on the right side of the frame here:

This is my current background image:

You can't see this in the small version of the image that I'm posting, but if you click on it to see a larger version, you'll notice the incredible sharpness of the ground's texture. The colors in both of these photos are extremely well processed, especially the blue in the second image.

I would love to post some of my own stuff but I don't have the skills to process my photos yet. Walgreen's still owns me, but not for long... Any tips welcome in the meantime!
