Tipster Of The Day: Dodgy Little Piece Of Black Metal
written by scapegoat on December 7th, 2008 , 4 comments (1 vote)

Sometimes it is good to be reminded of the most simplest things you can still do that you might have overlooked. Since the stress of those various complexities in our analogue life can be unbearable that it is such a breath of fresh hair when you try to confront and revisit the basics we used to know…

PRETEND TO WORK ON TYING YOUR SHOELACES by mephisto19

Get hold of your LC-A on your one hand and immediately kneel down pretending as if you’re getting off that gum you stepped on or you’re just trying to put your shoelaces together. While doing so, just press the LC-A’s shutter button and you’re done! Shoot from the floor, you don’t have to worry about the composition, The Minitar lens got everything covered for you. Also great for dog- shots!

You don’t have to racked your brain cells for you to produce the ultimate Lomotip, it can be an existing knowledge we all share that just needs to be rediscovered and it might give you a newer perspective than you thought it would.

    # 1 is a great one! Like some secret agent has to deliver a roll of film shot in a secret lab with a Zenit MF1......
