Oh my goodness I want one of these! Do you know what it is? It’s a lens attachment for a camera so you can take photos that look like photos taken with a Diana, or other plastic lens camera! I am so excited. I have been itching to play with my Holga, but honestly the film is expensive both to purchase and develop. This lens can attach to a DSLR, which means no film to buy or develop! Nothing but fun, fun, fun!

The lens comes from the Photojojo website (a place that has many things I want to buy in addition to this lens). The features of the lens are quiet awesome as well.

• Adds a soft and dreamy focus to your photos
• Adapter for Canon or Nikon SLRs and DSLRs
• Included adapter works with the entire line of Lomo’s Diana+ lenses
• Three distance settings (1-2m, 2-4m and Infinity)
• Includes Canon or Nikon adapter and 38mm Super-Wide Diana+ Lens

The price is nice too. At only $60 (with super low $2.50 shipping), it could easily find it’s way to my Christmas stocking (hint, hint, Santa). Of course I just know that as soon as I get one I am going to have to track down other Diana lenses to play with as well, since the adapter works with all of them.

In related photo news, I hope to give the 365 project a go again, starting tomorrow. Wish me luck.

I have a bit of a problem with emails. Most especially emails from groovy online shops offering all kinds of goodies. Usually I quickly delete them to avoid all temptation to buy things. Well I didn’t delete one today, one from the evil FredFlare.com (oh they are evil because they have so many cute things)! I mean, how could I resist the email subject line that said “30% OFF + a dancing kitten”? A dancing kitten made me open that email, and just as I thought! I found cuteness and temptation inside. Behold, Russian nesting doll measuring cups!!

Aren’t they awesome!? They are tempting me to part with $16.00… I mean really people! Russian nesting dolls (one of my favorite things), and for cooking (one of my other favorite things)! And don’t even get me started on the Hello Kitty flash drive and the nesting doll tape! I have a feeling that if I were wealthy, I could buy one of almost everything they offer. They have a blog too by the way, which I often have to avoid for fear of more temptation. LOL.
