Description:

Let's celebrate experimental analog fine art photography! For this swap you will send one photo each to two partners taken with a Lomo, Superheadz, Holga, pinhole or vintage plastic camera (Diana etc.).

Photos are senders choice, (though I encourage you to look at your partner's profiles before choosing from your negatives).

Print should be min. 5x5 and lab printed (or on a heavyweight, good quality paper from your home printer or home lab). Send something your partners would be proud to display! (Make them think they got an envie from the NYC Krappy Camera Show!)

There will be three weeks to shoot, print and send after the swap sign up closes.

Please no shots from drug store disposable cameras or instant cameras (Polaroid, Instax) this time.

Just PM or comment if you have any questions. All swappers with 4.9 min. and no recent 1s or 3s welcome. (Please contact me if you have been rated unfairly.) Obviously don't sign up if you won't follow through!

Most importantly here is a bit of inspiration!

hi...I have a few questions.

  1. I have two lomo cameras. my fav is the pop 9. And while I personally think that all lomo photos are cool.....my photos are not near as cool as the ones on that site. In other words: I suck. Can I still join?

  2. If I use my pop9, I cant get a 5x5 print. They come out 4x6. Is that okay?

Thanks

Hi Michelle, Hopefully your photos don't suck! I'm not sure that too many folks shoot quite as well as the lomo site photos. Just take your best shots and send one along you think the other person will like. As for the size 5x5 is just a minimum. You can probably get a 5x7 or 8x10. (These are supposed to be a bit bigger than regular snaps.) Just let me know if you have any other questions. M.
