This is why lomography in particular the Diana is the most unreliable form of photography going. It is unpredictable and out of 24 exposures you get about 6 decent prints if that! Not to mention the cost of printing. But still I keep going all because you would never getter such surprising photos. Yes most are bad but some have a real delicacy to them.
Florence.
I went to Florence with Jules (she needs no introduction, she is known in most circles!) to visit a friend, Sinead, who was studying there. Again we were poor. Always travel when you are poor! The return journey set us back a tenner. Ryanair plays ANNOYING music on take off and landing and doesn't have a commence sucking sweet light (sponsered by werthers original) next to the seat belt and no smoking light. We mostly walked, deciding our direction on the flip of a coin. Tales we go right, heads we go left, if it ever looked like we were going to walk in a circle we would choose the other direction automatically (ie right right right left.) We ate amazing pasta, based on the flip of a coin. I fell in love with the violence of the statues lying around the plazas. Sat watching music out side. Open air. Relaxing happiness. Sang along. Sat by the violent statues. 'The Rape of...' So violent. So strong. We met with sinead and watch an Italian covers band who didn't bother to find out the words to any of the songs they were covering. This started up an argument which is still in debate.
"Well I woke up this morning and I got myself a..."
"Meal" - Italians
"Deal" - Sinead's parents
"Feel" - Helen
"Beer" Me, Danny, Jules.
Me Danny and Jules are the music elite. We know that it is Beer! (The futures uncertain and the end is always near! It rhymes you see. It is beer!)
We managed to find modern art, IN FLORENCE (Thank you coin)
We were harrassed by Italian men (Jules' boobs no doubt!) A homeless guy heckled Jules:
"You need a stylist"
"You need a home!"
