Lomography

Diopters, also known as macro or close-up lenses. At most times, you may think you couldn't be bothered with them, but honestly, they are some of the most useful accessories a Lomographer might need! And i am here to show you the reasons why.

This tripod looks suspiciously like a Gorillapod. It has similar rubber feet and rubber rings around the flexible joints. It doesn't come in pink, there are no accessories available for it, but it's about half the price of a Gorillapod and it gets the job done.

Built for pushing, this film is long expired!

Istedgade runs from the back of Central Station, through Vesterbro, terminating at Enghave Plads. The heart of Vesterbro, this is one of the most famous streets in Denmark, certainly the most notorious.

An annual car meet located in a field outside a tiny town called Tølløse. All cars are welcome, classic as well as new, just as long as they are American made.

From smooth, realistic colours when processed in c41, to funky mints, blues and peaches when cross processed, this film gives you a lot of options.

Strikingly modern architecture colliding with heavy brickwork from 1906 on the Copenhagen waterfront. There's a cafe, a concert hall, and The National Museum of Photography. And of course there are books too!

A reasonably priced film that can handle most of what you might choose to throw at it. Don't expect any craziness! This is a gentle film, the tones are mellow even when cross processed.

For two years she has been my faithful friend, my most treasured companion, my rock in a sea of turmoil. We have stuck together through thick and thin, Holga and I, but now she has passed on.

If you're in for more experiments and wanting to do something with your rolls of film a bit differently other than baking it, cutting it into pieces and even fermenting it; how about cross processing? I know, this is much common now in Lomography next to cheddar cheese, but there is a scientific way of doing it! And all you need to know about it is here, courtesy of our Tipster of the week!

This little baby cost me $25 on ebay. It's a great almost-point-and-shoot camera for lower speed films, and a fantastic alternative to an LC-A if the $100-$250 is a little steep for you. It's a little larger than an LC-A, but the freedom of the battery-less selenium light meter more than makes up for that!

A great choice for a first SLR if the idea of completely manual controls is daunting to you.

Roskilde University, or RU, is located in Trekroner just outside Roskilde. Founded in 1972, the dominant architectural feature of RU is a great, big concrete box.

How about a Midsummer's Eve bonfire to keep you warm in these cold winter months?

I am such an idiot with this camera, it's quite embarrassing! No matter how hard I try, I always seem to be aiming too high or too low. Sometimes the pictures turn out nice in spite of me, but this is still not my favourite camera.

Anyone who knows me, knows I love strange film - the older and stranger the better! And this one is definitely strange: Expired in May 1992, this East German slide film was made to be developed in ORWO process 9165, chemicals which have long since been discontinued.

This funny-looking plastic thing is, visually, probably the coolest camera ever made (in my humble opinion). It's big, square, chunky and generally odd.

The digital image processing is omnipresent these days, and more often than not we are always confronted of the film's possible extinction in the future. But we're Lomographers, right? And we don't believe in such cynical pronouncement. Just like our tipster here who just can't get enough of using medium format film!

This old Russian is a bit of an odd one!

There have been a few reviews of Ektar so far, but here is something I haven't seen yet: This is Ektar Xpro'ed!
