Lomography is a new take on an old style of analogue photography. It’s solid and vivid in color and usually features a ring-like black border. This gallery offers an example of high quality lomography from various sources.
There are a ton of photographers on Flickr showcasing lomography of landscapes, people, parks, indoors, streets, cars, kids and other objects rich in colors.
Implications - The rise in availability of prosumer cameras has enabled a new wave of amateur photographers to take professional-quality photos. Some photographers are rebelling against this phenomenon by adopting analog methods of photography that have grown obsolete. These techniques require skill, separating diehard photographers from amateurs with cash.
