Lo-Fi Friday -The Old School Gym

LoFi Friday - Gym
If you look very closely you can see the bleachers through the reflections of these gym doors.

Lo-fi photography is a style of photography generally using poor equipment such as toy cameras or pinhole cameras for stylistic effect. This photo is an example of a simulated lo-fi shot. I took it with a digital Nikon D40 mounted with a 55mm Diana lens. There are all kinds of post processing techniques as well as camera phone apps which can simulate lo-fi photos. There are even a few talented people around who are still using film.

Have a super laid back, relaxing weekend and thanks for stopping by this week!

(In love with Lo-Fi like I am? Got a Lo-Fi photo you’d like to share? Please leave a link in your comments. I would love to see it!)

Great! A friend of mine has created an entire photo portfolio with a Holga toy camera. It creates these mesmerizing black and whites that look very vintage.

What gave you the idea to mix camera/lens? It is interesting... I must reflect on it some more!
