lomography.com

Lomography.com is an extraordinary website that has various resources such as images and art pieces from "lomographers". This online resource was introduced to us during the week 2 workshop and as I browse through the website, many art pieces became of interest to me.

Artisan_ofthe_light : "In every beat of a heart, blink of an eye, break of dawn and gasp of surprise, there lie new and unique moments to be captured."

This is a quote from the author of this piece. This image is an interesting on to me because it captures the essence of movement and time in a single still image. There is also a great contrast with the colours and scenery.
