As must already know, Lomography is in the process of collecting the most unbelievable batch of Lomo LC-A photos from every corner of the Earth. This super-powered bloc of Lomo images will serve to power a trilogy of inspiring coffee table photography books – scheduled for release over the next year or so.
Thanks to the efforts of our hardworking Lomographic water-boys, we’re able to splash two gallons of cooling liquid onto our Internet servers every 15 minutes. With all of the LC-A rumble uploads going on, this is the bare minimum required to keep them running. Don’t believe us? Just have a look at our upload stats so far:
7942 shots uploaded (first stage 40%, second 44%, third 15% and fourth 1% - please note: stage three and four are still running)
30196 tags submitted (that's an average of 3.8 for each image - the most common tags are: sky, girl, night, beach, blue, light, red, street, man and summer)
Thank you for all your uploads so far and making this the most successful rumble to date (we already have more uploads after stage 2 compared to the Fisheye and Holga rumble)
That’s right, there is exactly one day remaining to upload your 25 shots for Stage 2. As you might recall, Stage 2 consists of Cross process, B&W, and Flash. Once you’re filled out there, then move along to:
Stage 1 (11.01 - 25.01) – already ended
LC-A classics (colour negative film and single exposures)
Stage 2 (18.01 - 01.02) – going on
Cross process and B&W and Flash
Stage 3 (25.01 - 08.02) – going on
Double exposure, fisheye adaptor and tunnel vision lens adaptor
shot by shiiva
Stage 4 (01.02 - 15.02) – starting soon
For the fourth and last stage of our big LC-A RUMBLE, we’re requesting a bit more detailled lomographic stuff that we’d just love to feature in our upcoming books. These are:
a) Selfportraits with the LC-A(+): pics of yourself (taken in front of a mirror, with your arm stretched out etc.)
b) Your LC-A(+) in your place: your camera in an expressive place that represents the environment and lifestyle you live in. Front, back and sides of the camera. Just close-up pictures of your LC-A(+) in this environment. Images from digital cameras are allowed (but only here!)
c) Lomographers while lomographing: don’t think too much about this, just send over the stuff.
d) LomoArt: pics of your LomoExhibitions, LomoWalls, LomoTattoos, LomoToiletpaper and even other LomoArtwork, like desktop wallpapers, that express your lomographic inspiration in everyday life
Stage 1 (colour negative film and single exposures) was a furious success, and contained some of the greatest Lomo LC-A images that we have ever seen. Here are some:
If your palm feels empty without a Lomo LC-A affixed to it, then don’t despair: a little metal muchacho is patiently waiting to be your daily companion and Minitar 1-powered documentary machine of all your comings and goings. Your new Lomo comes in one of three packages.
