This Sunday! Gettin’ Around: A Muni-Themed Photo Workshop


Photo: sixsixty

Free on Sunday? Help us pay homage, the analog way, to one of the world’s most photogenic urban landscapes. RSVP as “Going” right on the Facebook invite to secure your spot. Or, you can call, email, or RSVP in person to the Lomography store.

Muni Diaries and Lomography SF are teaming up for a Muni-themed photo workshop. First, we’ll go over beginners’ tips and tricks for analog street and transportation photography. We’ll focus on how to shoot on Muni — one of our fair city’s best muses — and outside of it. Then, we’ll turn you loose with a fine camera — La Sardina or Diana Mini — so you can put those tips into practice ASAP. If you’ve got your own 35mm Lomography camera, you’re more than welcome to bring it and shoot with that!

When:
1 p.m., Sunday, July 22
Start to finish should be roughly three hours.
Workshop starts at the Lomography Gallery Store in Union Square:
309 Sutter Street, San Francisco, CA
(415) 248-0096

Cost:
$10 per person or $7 for students, plus up to an additional $16 for various developing/digitizing/printing options.

But wait, there’s more:
Heads up, sharpest shooters: the best photo shot at the workshop wins a prize.

Hope to see you there!

100 Muni StoriesRemember books? We do. So do a lot of people who ride Muni all around San Francisco. @azurelunatic spotted one recently reading a particular book that caught her eye.

‪#sfmuni‬ Just spotted someone reading The Princess Bride. Yay!

What books have you seen people reading on Muni? Let us know, and also check out Between the Lines, a site devoted to this very topic.

This time you’ll hear stories from the king of stylish brokeitude, Broke-Ass Stuart, audience favorite Jesse James, and spoken word wonderwoman Joyce Lee. We’ll reveal the rest of the lineup in a few days (hint: mime. Seriously). In meantime, get your tickets now!
