Hi Jeff,
I really would like someone to add a genetic plugin to Shiatsu breeding to let the dog see properly! The hair going into the eyes is one of those things that always puzzles me. Who hasn't heard of a blind Shiatsu? Why they bred a dog to be so hampered I'd really like to know! (If you do know that may be you might also be able to explain to me how come "Twiggy" ever was a model or why visitors to Ibadan are sold Palm wine to drink after 1:00 pm in Ibadan, Nigeria! Everyone knows that's practically lethal, it has fermented so long beyond great at 10 am!)
I do not "get" the Lomo effect here, probably because I have not been educated. I do know that a lot of people create fine art with that humble camera. Unfortunately I have not to date seen much to even approach recognition beyond some expectation of out of focus and distortion effect or light leaks.
However I am taken by your picture of the roofs, I presume in Florence. I'd just want the top of the tower to the right (is that the Duomo). The sky is of course spectacular. What filter got you that?

Asher, Peaches is a Maltepoo (sp) but I agree, a little trimming around the eyes wouldn't be a bad thing. I wonder if there is some sort of reason that was bred into those dogs?
I'm just learning about LOMO as well. You can buy some cheap LOMOs online, so I might grab one to shoot some film and learn more about exactly what lomography is all about.
I agree on the Florence pictures, however in my naivete I simply didn't get the whole tower in the shot. Our time in Florence is where I realized I needed to learn more about photography and upgrade from my little 4MP Kodak point and shoot.
The Florence pic where the clouds really pop was run through the LOMO action. I think the effect on both the clouds and the roofing tiles were quite nice.
Next project is to remove the antennas!
Kathy, I just downloaded it and then double clicked on the file. It opened in PS3 all by itself.
