What is LOMOgraphy

LOMO is the brand name for a USSR made mechanical camera - which was percieve as low-tech, low grade, crude and even cheap camera.

And in the days of digital cameras, nearly all old fashion mechanical cameras could be considered as lomo cameras. And LOMOgraphy is about taking spotaneous shot with a lomo camera. Snapping the previous moment without concerning about focusing, exposure or even if the camera was defective with light leak! So the end result of the shot could be very surprising - not something you could ever expect with a state of the art digital camera.
