I was doing some Christmas shopping with Hollie in Manchester yesterday and we were both surprised and quite excited to discover that a Lomography shop has opened on Oldam St. We popped in for a browse and it instantly took us back to our college days and when we first met, all those years ago. It was a lovely feeling just to wonder about, looking at all the advances, since I'd last been into the shop just off Caraby St. The shop itself is really well thought out and just puts you in a good mood, as you won't find anything boring insight. What I did notice was that they used negative space really well, when you lift a camera from its holder you are left with a blurb about the item in its place. Neat idea.
The store is so new that you can still smell the paint. Above is the wicked Christmas window display which they said took them ages to get just right. This has definitely spurred me on to whip my old analog out this Christmas.
