Lomography

I've been a fan of wide lenses for a long time - I got a wide angle lens for my first digital camera 10 years ago; this was then followed with an even wider lens when I got a DSLR.

Here's an article about one object at one location - and trying to take as many different photos as possible!

Fuji Provia 100F is an ultra-fine grain slide film, aimed at professionals who want smooth, rich and detailed rendition of tones and colours.

The SS Great Britain is one of Bristol's most popular tourist attractions.

This is a great technique for doing multiple-exposures. First of all, I shot a roll of film through my SLR using a custom bokeh mask. The basic idea behind the mask is that it changes the out-of-focus areas from standard circle-ish shapes to fancy shapes such as stars, faces, hearts etc.

It seems like yesterday that this tiny little camera was launched, but it was nearly two years ago now! I enjoy using my big Diana and the endless artistic possibilities it gives, so when I first saw this camera I knew I had to add it to my collection.

On the outskirts of Bath, one of the UK's most popular tourist cities lies this crumbling derelict military barracks. It opened in the 1940s and closed over 50 years later in 1993. A few years ago there was "news" that the site would be converted into retirement homes - nothing seems to have happened with that plan though.

Another long-gone film from Agfa...

Fuji has a wide range of slide films, all of which look pretty amazing when cross processed. Generally their ISO100 films have a red-ish shift. Sensia 100 is no exception.

Whilst on holiday in Menorca, we visited "La Mola" - a huge fort on a small island defending the main port/city. It is now a tourist attraction.

Hiding deep within the English countryside lies this spooky derelict asylum...

The Canon EOS100F is an entry-level 35mm film SLR. This camera won't appeal to everyone, and may not conform to the Lomography 'rules' - except "#10 - break the rules"! I have fun with it, and that's the main thing :)

Pretty much everyone has heard of the Lomo LC-A, and if you're reading this then you probably own one or know someone who does. But what about it's lesser-known sibling, the Lomo LC-M? Never heard of it? Well read on..

This film comes loaded in the legendary Konica WaiWai camera.

This film's box boasts "ultra high color saturation" - those words must be every Lomographer's dream!

EPJ320T is a Tungsten-balanced film. The idea of this type of film is to make subjects under yellow lighting look natural. It achieves this by shifting colours towards the blue. I hoped that cross-processing the film would make the colours crazy, and it did!

A cheap and cheerful negative film that looks good in all conditions.

Fuji Astia is a fun little film, especially if you want super-pink photos!

A super rare slide film straight out from the '90s!

A testimony why Fuji Velvia 50 became my new favourite film.
