Don't think, just shoot!

Here's the pictures(my first roll) from a tiny, fully plastic but cute camera. Those that doesn't know about lomography will not believe that those picture came from the toy camera.

Yes, lomo uses film, giving 'weird' outcome but is also another context of beauty. But the best part is the anticipation and the surprise when I see my pictures. Just like the famous quote from Mr. Gump
My momma always said, "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.


Vintage feel


Ipoh oldtown, origin of white coffee.


Kellie's Castle


My finger trapped in the picture. Made a lot of such mistake :/


Ipoh cave temple


This picture took from negative film. More mild and soft



10 Golden Rules of Lomography
  1. Take your camera everywhere you go. (I bring my baby angel everywhere I go, even to work!)

  2. Use it any time – day and night.

  3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it.

  4. Try the shot from the hip.

  5. Approach the objects of your Lomographic desire as close as possible.

  6. Don’t think. (William Firebrace)

  7. Be fast.

  8. You don’t have to know beforehand what you captured on film.

  9. Afterwards either.

  10. Don’t worry about any rules.
