Lomography: A picture is a thosand words




Lomography emphasizes casual, snapshot photography. Characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, "happy accidents," and alternative film processing are often considered part of the Lomographic Technique.


The Lomography motto is 'don't think, just shoot.' A true Lomograph is a photo using a Russian-made Lomo camera, known for its poor lens quality, inconsistent exposures, and occasional light leaks. Chance or 'happy accidents' frequently make the image. The photographer is the designer of the photo.

Users are encouraged to take a lighthearted approach to their photography, and use these techniques to document everyday life.Lomography is all about having fun while taking good pictures. The picture does not have to be perfect. The color and the lighting can be off and unnatural, even the angle can be awkward. The picture will still be interesting to look at even if everything is off.


Just take your lomography camera with you everyday and anytime and capture the moment that can last forever.
