The hot and sticky days of August
are upon us. Happily, full sun is a good friend of the Lomo LC-A+, and this is a prime opportunity to get off your ass,
head out the door, and shoot all of those awesome projects, crazy events, and unpredictable experiments that you've been
putting off. Trust us, you won't want to do it in the dead of winter, so this is your chance! To help you along, we've
got an all-new limited edition Colorsplash Flash, three totally inspirational Lomo Amigos, and an exclusive LC-A+ underwater
package. If you're not already hot, sweaty, and a bit bothered, then rest assured: you will be by the end of this newsletter!

A little over a month ago,
we presented the Staple Design Chakras Edition Colorsplash camera and "Colorsplash Chakras" book. We're now
thrilled to offer the second product in this collection - a fully customized Colorsplash Flash! Cast in a
rubberized finish and printed with Staple's signature pigeon & "bird-droppings" graphics, this smooth
operator will look great and function flawlessly on your LC-A+'s hotshoe. Here's more about it:
Specially designed by the Lomographic Society as the fiercest accessory for your Lomo LC-A+ camera,
this compact Flash will empower you to splash your world, night or day, in whichever vibrant colors that
you desire. Its patented colorwheel system puts several colored flash filters at your finger tips for
instant selection; with an additional 9 filters included to exchange. Throw a colored flash burst onto
dreamy long exposures, shocking instant shots, or daytime images. Standard hotshoe plug.

Once again, we've
got a trio of brand-spanking-new Lomo Amigos. Hailing from Taiwan, Los Angeles, and Beijing, these three
LC-A+ dudes will take you on a literal trip around the world - rendered with tender love and care in color
negative, black and white, and sweet, sweet x-pro.
A Marketing Planner from a satellite town of Taipei,
Taiwan, Bruce Lee (aka Jeansman) owns almost every Lomographic camera, but pledges deep and undying love for his LCA+. Never without an
LC-A+ in hand, Jeansman shoots the small town where he lives, a town he says is full of love & life, and that he never grows tired of
capturing on film. Jeansman is a witness, a documentarian, and most of all, a true Lomographer.

Eric Nakamura, magazine mogul and urban cultural aficionado/entrepreneur, hails from Los Angeles and graduated from UCLA with a degree in East Asian Studies. He got his start in magazine making through a stint at Larry Flynt Publications before branching our in his own right. In addition to publishing issues of Giant Robot Magazine, Nakamura has made an independent movie called Sunsets, has shot photos for punk rock bands, and designed some wicked t-shirts.
Applying know-how and attitude from the co-editors' punk rock zine background, the first Giant Robot Magazine was a stapled-and-folded photocopied digest with an edition of 240. Over time, Giant Robot has grown over 100 times larger, and has gained accolades as the best zines according to the L.A. Weekly, L.A. New Times, Wired, and Zine Guide.
Eric went on to open up 3 Giant Robot Stores in LA, San Fran, and New York's East Village. The Giant Robot stores feature in house art shows from fresh talent and sell carefully curated items catered towards the skateboarder-artist-japanese toy collector in all of us.
