Someone who has seen my personal shots recently accused me of being a student of the lomography school of thought in photography.  I nodded, shook my head, and quickly changed the subject.

Why?  Primarily because I had never heard the term before.  Wikipedia has a nice entry on LOMOgraphy if you are so inclined.  I had to read it before I understood what the accusation was.  I wasn’t being accused of being some schlock photographer, following a trend of using cheap cameras like the Holga.  No, I was being accused of liking the honest, natural, non-staged expressions of people who aren’t expecting the shot.

So yeah, I like that.  But I also like the unexpected angles (and occasional sweet shot) that comes up when doing the whole “shoot, don’t think” approach.  See the over-the-shoulder post.
