The high desert is a place filled with a variety of plants and geological formations. Right now, we are in the 4 Corners area, about 20 miles outside of Durango, Colorado. Here is a plant I found underneath the pinon and juniper trees.

Prickly Pear a la Lomo
I am not sure if the lab is to blame or the camera, but this image was filthy when I got the scans back from the lab. Either way, for what I am doing, it is unimportant. I am just playing. At some point, I will check to see if the debris is stuck in the film. I cleaned up the worse of it in post, and then did some color correction.
This is an interesting process, looking at the images out of the Lomo LC-A. To my eye, it says poor equipment and bad images. On the other hand, I can see why it could be just fun. My persnickety side is at war with my “let’s do it and see what happens” side.
Aesthetically, I do not think grungy, dirty pictures (with debris all over them) are interesting if it was not done intentionally.
To counter the Lomo, I have a 6×6 Isoletta III rangefinder due to arrive today. Let’s see what that produces.
Tree a la Lomo
As a small birthday present, I got a Lomo LC-A plastic camera with a glass lens. This is one of my favorite pictures . . . SOOC, Kodak Ektar.
Birthday Lomography
Got a Lomo LC-A (plastic variety) for a birthday present. Â And some film. Â This is the first roll developed – looks all scratchy and dusty. Â Do I like it? Â Hmmmmm.
