Re: Lomography?

It's an attitude towards making pictures with a camera. It breaks the
photographer out of socio-cultural conditioning. It's the opposite
approach to visualizing the picture you want to create. I think it has
a place and it can free you up enough for it to allow you to be more
cretive, less 'straight-jacketed'. I was probably trapped in the box
of playing safe and Lomo got me clean out of there. On the other hand
Lomo is something of a marketing hype, but that's not the be all and
end all.

BTW it isn't pinhole!
