Some Holga pictures in Brazil

While on holidays a couple of weeks ago in Brazil I took some shots of my hometown Sao Paulo with my Holga. There's a posh restaurant on the top of a very tall building where the view is amazing...here are some of the results:

I always loved cities with lots of big skyscrapers. Somehow reminds me of every "city of the future" I saw as a kid...

these are superb Sapata.  The Holga would be my last weapon of choice in these circumstances, but these work extremely well.  Especially the first few.

Primo!

I love the first three since they lend a sense of scale to the city.  I hope you post more like this.

That Holga in your hands is a jewel.

Thanks everyone for the feedback !

I never thought about taking my Holga there as well, but whenever I go to Sao Paulo, I go to that place and take pictures with "real" cameras, this was the first time I used a toycamera there and I like it ... I have taken pictures with my Rollei SLR, I'll find and post another time.
