What was the photo that you consider your first and best one at that time? We're sure there's a story behind that so tell us!
For the lucky ones, it was their very first shot from their very first roll of their very first Lomo camera. For the most of us though, it came after countless frustrating rolls. It just hits you. Your first “best” photo. I’m sure you guys know what I’m talking about and I’m sure as well that you have fond memories about it. So why don’t you tell us with a blog entry (with the picture of course!) and post the link here in the comments. The most popular one that tickles our fancy gets 15 Piggies while 2 runners-up get 5!

http://www.lomograph(…)os/12857718
It was my first time in Hong Kong. I took a shot inside Hong Kong International Airport, knowing that my camera--a Superheadz Super Fat Lens Yellow Peace camera--should be used only outdoors and in broad daylight. I took the shot anyway, and I have to admit, I love it. =)

This was my first best picture. I had a few shots left on my very first roll of film so I walked around the house looking for things to shoot so I could fill it up for processing. I saw a frying pan on the stove so I shot it first. I then turned the camera around, held it in one had while I held a key chain light on my face and shot another shot on top of the frying pan. I took this with my Nikon FE2 (LC-A+ was in the mail coming to me) so it was pretty heavy. I honestly didn't think this shot would come out for a number of reasons but it's crazy how magic happens sometimes. This photo symbolizes the moment that I truly fell in analog love.
