As our lomofriend lamia says, “[Doing] doubles with famous images gives a universality to the photos while putting something that’s been seen a million times in a new light.”

Read about this doubles collaboration here

A recently discovered tip, we’d like to see how you would mash up your own Lomographic masterpieces with a great famous painter. Take your first roll with those crazily detailed works of art, respool and take your own magical pieces! They say that good artists copy and great artists steal, and this is the perfect opportunity to put the saying into test! Happy shooting!
