Geez~man, Your photo surely embrace the philosophy of lomography. I like your photo very much.
I also got into the same situation when i started jump into lomo world.
When i tell them i want to spend hundreds of dollars for a film camera. They reply as follows.
"Why you want to use film? Film is expensive! You are goddamn rich fellow to play with film"
"How do you know that you are taking a good shot while you can't see what you take" (I'm actually piss off by this statement)
Sometimes, people just don't understand the world around us is build upon analog variables, so i decide to record my life with analog medium.
That's why i wrote this article on lomography (It's in chinese but i hope i'm able to translate it.)

hahaha i just tell them that they take beautiful things for granted behind the LCD screens. And they have to undergo the experience of the anticipation/surprise/unexpectedness that analogue offers in order to understand why (funky)dudes like us like to go the warped old school way.
which is why on christmas i organised a strictly analogue christmas outing for all my 'DSLR-kids' friends to let them have a go at what i do. And just like poison they got hooked too. HAHaha beleive me now there is a HUGE hype in my Facebook circle over how the pictures turned out and i know now i might just have alot more lomo-pals than before.


Its nice to see how they use the viewfinders instead hahaha. And plus there are some in this bunch who are established freelance photographers but have totally no idea behind the analogueness. Its nice to get everyone to take a step back but achieve the unachievable with hi-tech.
Lo-fi awesomeness FTW.
