10 Golden Rules of Lomography and the contest

10 Golden Rules of Lomography:

1) Take your camera everywhere you go.

2) Use it anytime – day and night.

3)This is not an interference in your life, but a part of it.

4) Try the shot from the hip.

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

6) Don’t think.

7) Be fast.

You don’t have to know beforehand what you’ve captured.

9) Afterwards either.

10) Don’t worry about any rules.

Today I received an advert email from a person called Will Griggs introducing about Threadless Loves Lomography and Hot Chip T-Shirts Contests. I think it’s useful so I just post it here ^^ Check the links out! personally I think the Tshirt website (www.threadless.com) pretty interesting.

Lomography, boasting half a million members across the world, encompasses an interactive, vivid, blurred and crazy way of life.
