First: Forgive me, for this is not a Lomo-pic :O It's a composing of a rather old, mirrored + silhouetted photo with lots of coloured layers, scratches and bokeh dots (the blurry ones). It was part of a semester project back at uni. Underneath I wrote:...

The inspiration for my blog? Colours.
Die Inspiration für meinen Blog? Farben.
Goethe’s Faust calls out that it is In the colorful reflection we have what is life. There are many photography bloggers out there, who take the most amazing and beautiful pictures, who show us a world that is sometimes hard to imagine. And some of them even claim to be amateurs.

The defocussed parts make it look kind of trashy, but, somehow, it also turns back time. It’s a double-exposure and I wanted to capture the same scenery twice, but time-lagged on one picture. Well, I didn’t quite succeed, which makes it...
So, this has probably been the hardest challenge so far. Clear lines? Ugh, so not me. Geometry in my lomographs? Almost non-existent. The decorations are perhaps a bit distracting (maybe it’s more symmetry than geometry...
[The sign reads Welcome to California.] Yes, very foreign. But I like the themed welcome signs in the U.S. (This is 1 picture, shot with my Lomography Supersampler.) By the way, please bear with me for upcoming posts, I just moved flats and am currently without online...
