DAY 74: Lomography London Experience

Today I went to pick up my photos!
First time shooting in black and white, I think some photos are very nice!

Films used:
-120 Lomography Lady Grey 400
-120 Lomograhy 400

Pics and a lot more

I´ve got a Lomohome!!!, you can visit it at: http://www.lomography.com/homes/merabovetheclouds, see my analogue pictures, and leave a comment.

A Lomohome is my space in the Lomo community, where I can place my pictures, comments, and learn a lot from other more experienced lomographers, earn prices, write my opinions, and share all that at the same time.Hope you like my pictures!

I´ve only taken 5 120 mm films. I love multiple expositions. I still have to try the flash. But for now, I´m really glad with the results.

My next purchase will be the Lomo Fisheye camera (I´m giving it to myself as a Christmas present!).

So..., Welcome!

Belgium, (or how Europe can´t be more European)

 After Cadiz, it´s always good to remember that it´s already Autumn, so Belgium in September it´s a nice option. Pablo (my little brother) and I conquered the Land of chocolate, Comics, Beer and fries. We arrived to Brussels, and as it´s almost tradition to us, when the bus from the airport left us in Midi-Station, we dind´t hesitate to walk for almost 40 minuttes to the Grand Place, where our hostel was. After leaving the lugagge. We finally got to turism part.
Brussels is a complex city. I think the Grand place is really beatiful, such ancient and gothic buildings, and in the nights the City Hall is illuminated with different colours following different songs. Apart from that, you´ll see some very turistic streets, and spend a while trying to find out the little and tacky Manneken pis behind a lot of people taking pictures. Brussels is full of  grafitti (excellent!) and cobbled streets, but has some parts that seem abandoned. We left the Atomium for last morning, I was so excited to see it, it´s a little smaller than I thought, but I can see its magic. Eating fries (that appear to be fried in oil), great chocolate (we bought mainly Leonidas and Neuhaus) and drinking beer (some different kinds!).

Second day: Brugge.The famous fairy tale city, with canals, old buildings and well decorated windows in the shops. But somehow, I find it beatiful, but so turistic that looses its charmed to me. Pablo was a little disappointed because it seemed different to the idea of medieval, little city, sold in the movie (In Bruges).

Third day: Gent. A different place, a city that seems old and holds history in every corner. I like it!!! We spent like 2 hours in the Castle (consequence of Pablo´s love for Game of Thrones). But sitting to see people pass by it was the best.

Great soup for Fall weather

So, then, Belgium wasn´t a country that I was dying to visit, but now it´s a place I wanna go back. (I need to plan Belgium 2, with Antwerp, Leuven, the Ardennes and a little of Luxembourg).

I need some sun!

Again, after a month working hard, and praying for more holidays, that day has come!, Cadiz!, we went the first weekend of September to get some sun, to lay on the beach and enjoy the sea. Of course, my skin has become a little darker, with really high suncreen protection, no as brown as I´d like it to, but enough to get some healthy colour. So, here some pictures of this great land!
