Lomo doesn't look that interesting in B&W. I like it in that weird color thing. What does it say right under "served with your choice"? I see roast potatoes and 3 vegs on the bottom but what's in between?
Interesting developer. Can you post more pictures from this film/camera/combo?
 
The sign says: Roast Lamb/ Roast Beef/ all served with Yorkshire Pudding.

I agree that a Lomo in b+w is just an ordinary compact especially if it doesn't distort or vignette--which mine doesn't (see my recent whining post about this, serves me right for buying a cult camera as someone said) but it's a handy thing for carrying around.

I could show you some taken with the colour flash but they're all just boozy staff party-type shots.

My latest project is to take pics of cafes, laundromats and car washes and process them all in the caffenol formula so the Lomo's always in my pocket or backpack. And man oh man do I get some strange looks when I tell people what I'm doing!

I'll happily dig out some more shots if you want to see them though. None of it's Getty Archive material I'm afraid.
 
OHhhh, Yorkshire pudding. Yah, that caffenol sound real interesting too. I just got my Yashica GSN cla'd and it smells good, works good, and all clean. I'm going to have to read up on the caffenol developer. I guess I'll carry that around for a while (sorry Ms. Holga, you'll be in the car otherwise).
