I much prefer the 1st conversion, seems so much more detail.

Isn't that what Lomo is about? Blown out pictures, vigneting .. stuff like that.

Anywho, I think the 2nd is best (which would actually make it the 3rd )

EDIT: Shoot at higher ISOs! I want to see noise!

and yes, the 2nd (3rd) is the best!

I think the first redux is more of a Lomo. The second's vignette looks inverted. it looked darker in the center of the flower instead of the edges.

People should learn about a photography effect before they blindly follow some tutorial meant to emulate it.

The first (unedited) image above is far superior to the other two (edited) images
