Panda LOMO ^__^

I entered a contest on LOMOGRAPHY UK and it was a lovely surprise that I got into the Top Ten!! XD So myself and 9 others were given a Diana F+ and film rolls to play with for 2 weeks, and the blog post which gets the most comments or likes Wins !! So dear lovely friends, please help me by clicking ‘like’ at the top of this post !IMG_0612e
This is the beautiful Diana with flash and loads of colour filters!  I added the panda sticker =p
It came with a book that had beautiful Lomography pics

One of the rules of Lomography is to approach the objects of your Lomographic desire as close as possible. I guess these are all my objects of desire!
I took some photos with Diana, and some without, Can you guess which ones are which?
My pandas..

DIY Valentines day Chocolates <3

Hi everyone =] Valentines day is coming soon! What are you giving your loved one(s)?
I thought this year I would make an effort and try to make some chocolates!Here is a small selection I made, just as a practice run... I think I might be giving them out to friends and family too, ^__^ just to show some love =P
SAM_1365e
Oh course I made a panda one ^___^
I will try to show you how I made the heart ones
I used these silicon moulds that I got for £1!
SAM_1336e
*Tip*: The best way to melt chocolate is in a sandwich bag immersed in hot water.
1. melt some White chocolate and Plain chocolate
SAM_1339e
Fill a mould with plain chocolate, but not fully, leave a dip in the middle
SAM_1340e
Let it set in the fridge then take it out, and squeeze in some white melted chocolate. (cut the corner of the bag)
SAM_1343e
looks like a custard tart....
SAM_1344e
To draw hearts, put a circle of plain chocolate dots on top whilst the white chocolate is still melted
SAM_1346e
Using a toothpick, run it all around the circle of dots, and you will get a hearts effect!!
SAM_1347e
You can do this the other way around too, with white hearts instead. Also, if you don’t have moulds, you can just make chocolate buttons and do the same effect ( seen in the first picture )
I hope this helps, or gives some inspiration! <3

EOS Big Crystal Brown lenses Review

Hi everyone, these are a pair of more natural looking lenses, I chose these as I had never really reviewed a pair of more natural looking lenses before. Anyway these are also from Mukuchu.

They don’t have a black circle around them, just a darkish brown one. 

SAM_1281e

Here is what they look like in my eyes.Left one without, right one with. It gives a nice enlargement and is a little lighter coloured than my eyes

SAM_1295e

I love the colour you get with flash, they look quite natural!
