So a couple weekends ago, while staying with my friend and soon-to-be roommate in London, I got to try my hand at the wonderfully imprecise art of lomography. I suppose this lo-fi photography is naturally my next step to hipster-dom, following my love and collection of LPs.
The Lomography Store at Carnaby Street does these group projects called ‘Lomomissions’, where, for an entry fee, you get a free roll of film, the opportunity to borrow a lomography camera, and go around London with a group of equally-excited lomographers on a specific subject mission. The one we went on focused on looking at London from a tourist’s perspective. It was great getting the opportunity to try different film cameras. Ever since getting my nice digital 5 years ago, I’ve abandoned film. And now that my nice digital has died an unexplained death, I may have to fork out money for a lomography L-CA or a Holga. I’ve got a few pictures here, but the rest of the decent pictures are on my lomohome.

In other news- Albums that I have finally went and purchased:
She & Him, Volumes 1 & 2
Neko Case, Middle Tornado
The new She & Him is as low-key and lovely as the first, while my love-affair with Neko Case’s music is undying.
