Altered PAWs
There is an old Russian camera called a Lomo that is so cheap it leaves very distinctive looks on any photos taken with it thanks to lens aberrations. Many Lomo shooters also like to use a film processing technique called "Cross Processing" to give the colors a real boost to their Lomo shots (Cross Processing is processing slide film in negative film chemicals and vice-versa).
I like classic Lomo/Cross-processing photos but not so much that I am going to blow a roll of film dunking it in the wrong chemicals. This week's PAW is taken with my new "Digital Lomo".
OK, OK, its my Nikon D100 and a shit-load of Photoshoppin' I think I got the essense of Lomo shooting though its perhaps too sharp.
Also check out Last week's PAW as well. Its taken on good old fashioned film dipped in the correct chemicals and no Photoshoppin'.
