A place I love to go anytime of the year is Tandle Hill, just on the outskirts of the city, in Royton. There’s a fantastic walk through the woods that leads you up to the top of the hill where a monument stands to commemorate the men of Royton who died during the First World War.

Many years ago, I found a Lomo LC-A camera in a flea market. This was in the early '90's when Lomography was still unknown in Italy. I bought two of these cameras together with a Fed 2, Zorki 4, and a Lubitel 166U. But I never used the Lomo cameras until 2008... Why? Read on to find out!

My first-ever backpacking trip in the country. I brought my favorite Diana F+ camera and the ever-so-reliable Vivitar UWS, each loaded with a roll of Kodak Ektachrome 200 - yes, on an unexpectedly gloomy, rainy day. I was hoping for the best but also expecting the worst shots.
