• Lomo Milestones: My First Expired Film

  
  I use Lomo cameras from the beginning of the 90s, before the birth of LSI. But for many years, I seldom used these cameras, and in these rare times, I used my LC-A or my Lubitel 166U in a classic way (classic black and white or color photography, classic composition, fresh films). My first 100% lomographic use of my camera was with a film expired for many years. Take a look!
