I got Lomo’d!

July 31, 2007

I wanted to get into Lomo a little after I got my Vespa. I’ve always felt the two fits the same carefree and hip lifestyle. As I did a little research about Lomography through LomoManila, I’ve realized that — although I love the texture of images it creates — I’m not up for the arduous footwork involved with the hobby by having films processed and developed before seeing the images I took. I thought it was as easy as digicam. From then on, I gave up on the idea. Below is a mock ad about the “don’t think, just shoot” attitude involved in the art of Lomo lovin’.

Recently, J-Mag got into the lomo craze and I’ve never seen him without his new ‘toy’ since. When hanged-out in the Threelogy office last week, he took several shots of me as I arrive on my Vespa. Here are the resulting lomographs.

Jason didn’t just “shoot-from-the-hip,” he “dropped-to-the-ground” for this one.

I never imagined I look like a bug whenever I’m in my quarter-helmet and goggles, until I saw this picture. What the heck, it’s a lomo shot, baby!

didn’t think, just posed…

    Karl, I wanted to answer your question but I got troubled when I can’t remember which show was that catchphrase from. Was it Lone Ranger or Zorro? HELP! 8O
