Snap Happy
Tis' the season to turn that frown upside down. The winter blues had us whining about the British weather like an attention seeking broken record. However as the Sun blesses us daily with its tender rays, the frown lines we developed sigh with relief, as we exhale the bitterness away.
Thanks to Lomography's revival of the toy camera we can capture those golden moments of happiness in an instant - just like your average digital camera. Right? But there's more.
Can you feel your fingers shaking as you hold that all too familiar envelope. Can you feel the corners of your mouth curl up as you lay eyes on the first picture? Can you feel what you felt the day those pictures were taken.
This anticipatory excitement and unpredictability that is akin to the toy camera will have you addictively experimenting with each shot, whilst creating some wonderfully uncanny pictures. Perfect for your photo wall of 'Summer 2011'.
