This is the second (and last) part of the series, "The Postman Always Rings Twice." The wonderful surprises of the Lomography Shop do not end with the history of my LCA+RL in the previous article. After some days, the postman has rang my bell again with an amazing Horizon Perfekt!

My husband and I took a break during the weekend and paid a visit to Gunung Lang equipped with a Lomo LC-Wide and a BeLOMO Elikon 535. Once in, we were greeted with a magnificent lake enclosed by majestic limestone outcrops surmounted by lush greenery. Across the lake lies a landscaped park that is only accessible by boat. Fortunately, a jetty provides ferry services through water taxis for visitors like us to reach the park.

There is a place about an hour-and-a-half north of Sydney, Australia that I call "home". This new series will highlight a bunch of romantic locations that if you ever come to visit, you should definitely check out, especially if the weather is good, like in spring!

These spheres aren't perfect. Why's that? Well, it's because the objects jutting out of the perfect circle cause the jaggedness. These objects are skyscrapers, bridges, antenna and even the sky! How can the sky be angular, or even have a assignable form? If it's made of rectangular bits of paper, that's how!

“Painting, for me is an activity I need to get involved in, that has a total effect -- not just a conceptual but an overall physical experience.” - Isabelle Borg

Up the winding roads and around the beautiful bays lie Chapmans Peak. Pack a bottle of wine, some snacks, and a couple of cameras. Stop often as there is a photo opportunity around every bend.

The series is called 'Mimesis', by Barbara & Michael Leisgen, and was created between 1972-1973. The duo are proponents of 'Land art'. The idea is that the 'human will' frames photographs, and the series does well to presents this worldview.

When I got my Horizon Perfekt I just wanted to go outside and take pictures right away.

On a weekend trip I made a while ago, I met San Pedro de Atacama, which is in the second region of Chile. I've always wanted to go there but never had the opportunity so I was very happy when I was able to do so. I took the LC-A + and Supersampler, which served as my traveling companions.

When Kodak replaced its Portra 400NC and Portra 400VC (Neutral Colour and Vivid Colour) lines with the new Portra 400, many people were devastated. The subtlety of the NC film and popping colours of VC will surely be missed, but since its launch, this film has gathered a huge following. Having finally got around to using it, I can really see why. This film is amazing!

Fuji Velvia 50 RVP has, for many years, been the film of choice for professional landscape photographers. And when you use it for this purpose, or for still life, you'll see why. But cross-processing it yields fascinating results, too.

You heard me. Trying different exposures, got me thinking what else I can do with my camera. That’s when I found out about panoramic photos and how I can achieve such effect. This method has been around for a while and many professional photographers have been using and talking about it.

On the Italian territory a few kilometers away from Rimini, you'll find the Republic of San Marino.

Wikipedia says: Autumn is one of the four temperate seasons. Autumn marks the transition from summer into winter usually in September (Northern Hemisphere) or March (Southern Hemisphere) when the arrival of night becomes noticeably earlier. For me, autumn is a time of change. It's also a time of tea, cookies, and candles.

If, like me, your life is plagued by self-doubt, anxiety and neuroisis, then you will occasionally come across the feeling that maybe, just maybe, the photo you're about to take isn't really worth taking after all. Maybe it would be better to save the film, maybe for a party or something. But you sort of like the shot... To shoot or not to shoot: here is the answer!

A glimpse of the people, landscapes, and soul of the Canadian Arctic through my favorite camera, the Holga 135BC. This trusty plastic bodied companion has combated and made it through -50 degree weather, howling winds, and sea salt laden air. It has traveled to the middle of the Tundra to capture countless midnight suns, migrating bears, and beluga whales, the Canadian husky sled dogs, and the adventures of local arctic dwellers. Welcome to my home away from home, the most magical place on earth!
