Lomography and Instergam... Not Sure...

Found this link over in a forum at Analogue Photography Users Group which is a video about the Lomography in England. The Journalist sort of goes into the descriptions of Analogue Photography, but treats it as more of a defunct craze for Hipsters. We all know a smart phone can do wacky wacky things with our images but really?? Yes we all know that Instergram sold to Facebook for mega bucks, but I don't believe that analogue photography has just been happened on.

These years of living after the Great Depression has given rise to less and less use of analogue techniques, and they are dying off. Most Pro Labs are  dying breed, and have to live on the Digital Process as the Film Lines start to lay waste. It's gotten to the point where film is scanned after processing, so the photographer can manipulate and edit the the photo digitally. No More Master Printers dodging and burning in the dark room to get the beautiful images of yesteryear.

This is why we need to bring back analogue in a big way!! Companies like Kodak should not have gone into Bankruptcy..

Bill Cunningham New York

I was going through my normal Thursday Morning rituals. I get the Age Newspaper and was flicking through the Green Guide. Reading all the little tit bits about new generational stuff and the things bubbling under the surface of TV wonderland.

The most interesting thing I saw was that the DVD has now become available for the photographer Bill Cunningham. Bill rides an old Schwinn bicycle around New York City looking for those at the height of fashion and capturing there lovely image. He still shoots film and uses a Manuel Focus (yeah MANUAL FOCUS) lens.

Hes has captured some LOVELY LOVEY shots you can take find them through here.
