A few days before I left my hometown of Vancouver (BC, Canada), I spent a day at English Bay in Stanley Park. From afar, I saw a father and daughter looking for seashells.They took their time going over each shell and carefully added each one to their collection. Eventhough I do not know what they said to each other, the love the father had for his daughter was undeniably evident. Photo taken by Marianelli Agbulos (Vereinigte Staaten) - People/Family/Friends

This picture is special to me because it is taken with a Lomography Diana F+ and with KODAK Elitechrome EB 100 (it is crossed). I really love shooting film, I adore KODAK Films but shooting film is becoming less and less (alas!). I take my Lomo almost everywhere with me, and so i took it with me when i had a walk. The Photo was shoot in my Hometwon in Austria, a small village. I selected the Artistic/Creative Section becuase i think that Lomography has something artistic, you can not know what you get back from developing until you really have the results.
