Day 4 of our *Lomography Competition Week* Round-the-Clock Rumble series is all about the *don't think, just shoot!* philosophy. Deadline is on October 17, 2008 - an entire week from now!
Don’t think, just shoot! would probably best describe how we roll this time. One of the greatest things about Lomography is the thrill of unpredictability. Have you tried shooting a roll of film entirely ‘blindly’? For this rumble, we’re asking you to live by the ’don’t think, just shoot’ philosophy. Advance your film a bit but not too much – the overlaps add a delicious flair. Shoot a far away subject from your camera, then immediately take your next shot as close as you can!
You can pretty much do anything you want with your shot, but ABSOLUTELY don’t think!
We’re looking for the most enormous and unpredictable shots. Send in your serial, overlapping images done with your medium-format cameras. The new Lubitel Universal 166+ is an ideal camera for such wonderful unpredictability.
Submit those unexpected beauties and you will be rewarded! Not to worry, we’re giving everyone an entire week – until Friday, October 17,2008) to scan their archives or do some crazily random shooting!

I always shoot blindely with my folding cameras. I looks to ridiculous if I look though the view finder... But I'm pretty good and framing the subject so there's always a head on the pic :)
