When I decide to make a trip somewhere, there is nothing better than my Diana F+. Instead of buying some postcards, I actually prefer taking some shots with my jewel: you cannot imagine anything more vintage and retro! That’s why I strongly recommend this camera to all the travelers and nostalgic of the ‘60s.

Back when I was a social networking addict, I was always in search of new ways to edit my self-portraits; hoping it would spice up my 3.2 megapixel pictures. One day while scouring the Internet for tutorials, I stumbled across a Photoshop Action titled "lomography". The writer had a before-and-after comparison of a normal photograph and the lomo version of that same picture. The outcome, although digitally manipulated, piqued my interest enough to google more on lomography.

A faithful reproduction of the '60s iconic camera of the same name, the Diana+ retains the best features and offers an all-new functionality. Back in the 1960s, a plastic camera made waves in Hong Kong. It was called the Diana - a lightweight medium-format camera manufactured by the Great Wall Plastics factory. It was inexpensive and easy to use, and can produce dreamy, soft-focus images that lo-fi enthusiasts go crazy about. The Diana was such a big hit, inspiring rival companies to make copies and knock-offs of the iconic camera.

A month ago, me and my boyfriend went for a little trip to Zeeland, Vlissingen, to eat some local fresh yummy mussels. I had my Diana for some months but due the boring Belgian weather and never getting the chance to have some vacation, this was the best moment to take her out for the first time.

Our friends at the very cool photography blog "Epic Edits":http://blog.epicedits.com/ contacted us recently about a project/competition aimed to show how affordable and exciting film photography can be. Well, that's right up our alley, so we were happy to help out and sponsor the competition with some brand-spankin' new (and $50 and under) "Diana+":http://www.lomography.com/diana cameras. Our other friends at "Ilford":http://www.ilford.com/en/ have also decided to throw in some fresh 120 film to make the competition that much more enticing.

Recently I was contacted by Diana Mulvihill, a photography student at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. Diana was on her way to Egypt to do some work for a non-profit organization that helps children (and also wishes to remain anonymous for the purpose of this interview). Diana is trained as a documentary photographer and has worked for over a decade as a photojournalist. She had heard about her camera namesake, but had never shot with one. We thought it would be neat to see how the "Diana+":http://www.lomography.com/diana would hold up on a real photojournalism assignment, and hoped to capture some of the beauty and magic of this incredible destination. See Diana's Diana+ gallery below, and read an interview with this remarkable woman.

The Diana World Tour aims to unite Lomographers from all over the world with one common motivation - an immense love for analog photography! It's a travelling exhibition of all things Diana - including photo safaris, learning workshops, the immense "Detrich Colletion" of classic Diana camera and Diana clones, delicious meals, and fairly out-of-control parties. Appropriately, its very first stop is Hong Kong - the birthplace of the original Diana camera of the 1960's! Running from 8/1/08 to 8/3/08, the highlights will include:
