I took this image through the windshield of our car using my iPhone as we sat in the rain this past Sunday morning.

First Fisheyes in a While
Yesterday I went down to see the partially reopened trail in the south Don River here in Toronto. I decided to shoot my 4mm f/2,8 fisheye for the first time in a while.
60
An image of a bike wheel and shadows, rotated to look like the number 60 and printed as a cyanotype.
Old and New
This image combines 21st century digital editing techniques (NO AI!) to combine various images into an imaginary scene, then printed as a cyanotype, a process dating back to 1841.
A Different Tone
Another Cyanotype print, btu this time I used the toning technique by soaking in a very strong instant coffee solution to get more of a blue/black tonality.
Flowers at Rosetta McClain Gardens
Out yesterday morning on a brilliantly lovely morning. All images taken with Sony a7iii and Tamron 70-300mm lens
St. Lawrence Market
Escaping the foul air in Toronto yesterday, I went into St. Lawrence Market right as it opened at 9 a.m. It’s interesting to photograph when it’s empty.
All images taken with my Sony a6100 body and 7Artisans 10mm f/3,5 lens.
Returning to Cyanotypes
It has been a number of years since I made done any cyanotype prints, but I am returning! I made this print (of a on locomotive on display in Guelph, Ontario) yesterday.
Reflection
I saw an ad in the front of an eyeglasses store on the Danforth here in Toronto, and with the reflections to me it told a different story.
At the Beaches With a New Lens
My eyes aren’t getting younger, and focusing manual telephotos is not getting any easier, so I treated myself to a Tamron 70-300mm lens. I was out at the Beaches yesterday, and paired it with my Sony a6100 body.
