They say a picture paints a thousand words. What more a thousand pictures? Well, get ready for Lommolokal.

A joint project of Lomomanila, the local lomography community, and Team Manila, a multi-disciplinary graphic design studio known for making funky and cool merchandise, this exhibit aims to provide visitors with a different perspective on Philippine culture captured through the lomo lens that encompasses everything that is Filipino, ranging from the ever so familiar jeepney to the favorite snack of the common citizen, the fishball and isaw.

This showcase of talent will run from October 26 to November 16, 2007 at Team Manila, 146B Jupiter Ave. Makati City, Philippines. Admission is free. All Lomomanila members are enjoined to participate by either sending in photos or by helping put up the exhibit. For more information, visit the LomoManila forums.

Take a break from your usual mundane routine and visit this unique photo exhibit and get a fresh outlook on Filipino life. As they say, you’re never too old or young to appreciate a great photo.
