A hand-tinted cyanotype version of an image from last summer taken at McCain’s Auto Wreckers near Guelph, Ontario. A fascinating location.
Evening at the Beaches
I need to do more evening photography, so I went with a friend to the Toronto Beaches near Lake ONTARIO the other night. All images taken with my Sony a7iii and Tamron 70-300mm zoom lens.
Tinted Wheel
A tinted cyanotype print of a wheel that is part of an old device I saw in an agricultural museum. This is my second attempt at hand-tinting the image. The first one failed; the paint was too thick. I used much more thinned down watercolour this time around.
At Balzac’s
The Balzacs Coffee Shop at the Distillery District in Toronto has one of my favourite cafe interiors in the city. I love the view from the second floor.
Chaos
I was atthe CNE (Canadian National Exhibition) Midway last night.
Crowds, nosie and chaos.
All images taken with Sony a6100 body, and TTArtisan 75.mm f/2.8 fisheye lens.
Working With an Accident
This hand-tinted cyanotype began as an iPhone photograph of the centre of a bowl/plate that someone left out on their lawn. But when I made the digital negative to make the cyanotype contact print I forgot to invert it, so the negative was a positive.
I decided to go with it, and tired hand-tinting the “negative” cyanotype with watercolour pigments. Here is the results.
Note: instead of just scanning the print, I just took a photo of the entire thing.
Back to Niagara-On-the-Lake
I jsut got back from our yearly theatre weekend in Niagara-On-the-Lake, so the next few posts will be images of that town. I am strtin off with some night photography, all taken with my Sony a7iii body and Tamron 28-75mm lens.
Adding Colour, Number #2
Another hand-tinted cyanotype of rusted streetcars at the Halton Rail Museum. Again, watercolours were used.
Adding Colour
This print of a derelict street car at the Halton Rail Musuem started off as a standard cyanotype, but I decided to explore adding colour via watercolour. I like the results!
Black Creek Pioneer Village
it has been at least twenty years since I hve been at this location. During this return visit I was shooting with my Sony a6100 and TTArtisan 7.5mm f/2.8 lens. I liked the indoor images I was getting.
