Default My first lomo (I heard it here first)

Going to breakfast Saturday, I spotted this truck in the parking lot. It begged me to make it lomography. Had seen the "how to make a lomo picture" post a few days before. I knew this truck was made for it. Tell me what you think. I tried to follow the step by step but got kinda lost at the black layer.

Also my first post here. Let me know if it shows up alright.

I think it looks great. It's cool when you find a picture that really works with the technique.

what should we comment on? the colors? The crop? the effect as a whole? the brightness/ darkness perhaps?
See where I am going with this? It just helps others know which direction to go with thier suggestions if they kind of have an idea of where your mind set is at.

Nice work! I've been dying to try this out myself, might see if I can get off my arse and give it a go this weekend. I always thought Lomo had more prominent vignetting, but I could be wrong.

Such a perfect subject, too
