About Pure Lomo

A place for you guys to post your real Lomo shots.
Sure there are a lot of Lomo groups out there already, but many seem to be very lax in what is and isn't allowed, with a growing influx of manipulated digital images slowly diluting the experience.
I will be monitoring this pool regularly for transgressors and intend to keep it Lomo film only.

What do I mean by Lomo?

Any camera that was produced by the "Lomo" company originally, so not just LC-A, I am happy to accept pictures from the like of the Smena and the Lubitel.

I don't subscribe to the Lomographic society ethic that any cheap camera from China is a Lomo, it is just sales pitch to exaggerate the price of the various camera's they sell, so I'm afraid stuff such as the Actionsampler doesn't really fit in with the group ethos!

The single exception to this rule is the LC-A + which I can accept as a "real" Lomo, despite it's being manufactured in China!

Have fun kiddies, if the rules are too harsh, then you don't have to join!

Recently I have had a glut of Diana, Holga, iPhone, golden half shots, amongst others
I will now ban first offence, the group description couldn't be clearer, yet people still continue to ignore it.
This is not a Lomography group!
