Lomo!

OMG!

So, Looking at my (lack) of blog posts! I found out I have not posted anything about my Lomography (ok- I did in like Jan..)!

Lomography is based in Vienna, where a group of people fell in love with Analog.

Here are some of my lomo pics

Now, I have a 2 Holgas, and a Diana F+. I got an instant and 35mm back for The Diana. I have one for the Holga too, but it's confusing. ish.

But, I love my Lomos. They are so fun to play around with, and experiment. Matter of fact,  I spent all day trying to get sprocket holes. I was using this site. with my SLR. I just laid the film on my laptop (Which folds down) and snapped a pic. I played around in photoshop, and got what I got. They're not perfect, but at least they are sprockets!

I have been playing around with film, and where to get it developed. I went to a professional Mom and Pop place in Port Huron, to get film and developed. It ended up costing me 2 dollars a pic! Ugh! I sent it in at Meijers (Which is a Michigan grocery store..Just look for anyone who has FujiFilm that they send out too). and I was actually more happy with those results. (Like .25 a print!). Though, I don't know where to get film from. I'll figure out something.

So, have you heard of Lomo? What have you learned from it?
Hope you are well! I promise I'll try and write more!
