Controlling LC-A+ Exposure with Ease
written by ccwu on 2012-06-12 #gear #tutorials
When using LC-A+ in a backlighting situation, the main subject will be underexposed and all you get is a dark silhouette. When shot at night or in low light conditions, the results are overexposed and blurry. I believe many folks have similar experience. You can now improve things with a minor adjustment.

My 2011 in Analogue: An Eye's View
written by vicuna on 2011-12-28
It's always an incredible sensation to come to the end of the year and realize that 12 months have passed so quickly. Time flies by, but we lomographers have a great chance: we shoot our lives at every moment, and have the possibility to look at the past year through our photos and travel in time. But this also needs to make a selection, of some moments and some pictures in a very subjective way (but memories are subjective anyways) and thus, my analogue year selection isn't detailed, neither per month nor of what I did during these 12 months, but just picked up some moments and pictures I liked of 2011.
