Toy camera photos many taken mid-eighties through mid-nineties, though there are now new ones. The Diana is a cult camera, manufactured for some years in Hong Kong; google Diana Camera for info and more examples. It features a plastic lens and no two are exactly alike. My favorite has a blurry spot right in the middle that ruins most shots but occasionally creates something I like. They are presented in somewhat chronological order but it's intended that you cluster and read them like tarot cards. The Diana uses 120 film as does a Hasselblad but it's hard to take yourself too seriously while using one. My original prints are pretty dark and most are 7" square.
