About a year ago I discovered a brilliant little programme called toycamera which allows you to make your shiny high resolution digital pictures look like they were taken on a crappy broken analogue. It so happens that mostly I find that look a lot more appealing than the polished digital one and so for those not that devoted to photography and possibly short on funds it is a much cheaper and faster alternative to disposable cameras et al. Of course this does not mean to say that you should ditch your good old analogue. Nothing can ever replace the process of real photography and I much prefer the results of exposing real film to light and then having it developed and properly printed (though places that will actually do that are quite hard to find these days). But this little gem of a tool does make it much easier to take lomography style pictures without hesitation and second thoughts about the money spent on endless snapshots.
