A Martian landscape? Although, like you, I'm not one for colour shifting, I do find these images quite striking. Thanks for sharing.

I love the soft effects of the Lomo group of cameras, I have a Holga who have associations with them although not their brand, but like you I'm not a great fan of colour shifting. That said, these are beautifully soft and the film gives them such an ethereal feel 😊

I didn’t know that Lomo as an acronym! They’re fun cameras and films to play around with.

Wacky! Looks like a fun experiment. So niche though. 😁

Pretty cool. Kind of reminds me playing Sokoban in "4 color" CGA (was like pink/purple, white and some sort of green) (https://www.uvlist.net/game-161293-Sokoban) ;-)

Haha that’s okay. It’s one of those games I played back in the early 90s when we first got a personal computer and thought “why would we need an internet?” ;-)

You know how I think about these films, but I gotta say - I really like these. The tree and low angle of the dune grasses are my favorite. It is good to see photos from your Lubitel!

Also thanks for the short historic Lesson. Lubitel surely made some fun cameras. I always wanted a Lomo-LCA but never got one. Instead I have a Holga, Diana, Lubitel 166B and a Sprocket Rocket… I really should use them some time. Especially the Sprocket Rocket…

Thank you for sharing! I had heard of the Diana cameras, but didn’t know about the others. Your experiments are really fun and you ended up with some beautiful and unique photos. As a beach bum I especially loved the first 3. I have a roll of lomography turquoise I need to try.

I'm not usually drawn to lomography but what I do like is the light and the consistency on your images and of course, your openness to experimenting. Nice job! I think my Holga in b&w is probably my favorite outlet of that kind.

What’s that saying by Forrest Gump. “Like a box of choc-o-lates, you never know what you’re gonna get.” 😆 That’s some shifting going on. Thanks for sharing this information.

Great Wall Plastic Factory. Classic! I've been playing with a couple rolls of Harman Red. Its a way to expand the eye with a bit of fun.

"I’m not a fan of colour shifting but..." I think it's cheap entertainment to play with the sliders, but you're forced into a certain color scheme due to outside forces, and you know that going into it, but still can't quite predict the outcome... then that's kinda fun.
