Two More of the Banff Springs Hotel
I never tire of how the Banff Springs Hotel merges so nicely with the mountain landscape.
Both images taken with Canon P 35mm rangefinder and 15mm/4.5 Voigtlander SuperWide Heliar lens

Taylor Creek
Taylor Creek this morning was a creek on the verge: on the verge of melting and on the verge of freezing at the same time. Add some reflections and some wood and it really caught my eye.

Banff 2: Leaning Trees
While walking in Banff I was stuck by how these trees were leaning; it seemed to me to have a certain elegance.

Lining Up a Shot
This image is from the recent Toronto Film Photographer’s walk. My friend Alex is lining up a shot, and the geometry immediately caught my eye.

Bridge
Near a condo development in the west end I found this interesting pedestrian bridge close the the lake.

One of My Favourite Structures in Toronto
…and I seem to keep coming back to it. This is how the gazebo in the Beaches looked on a cold New Year’s day morning.

The First Day of the Year
I have made it a tradition the last few years to go out camera in hand on the morning of January 1st, regardless of the weather. This year was grey and cool for most of the day, but I still went down to the Beaches in the morning, with my Nikon F2 and three lenses. This image was taken with my 50mm/1.4 lens, on TMax 400 film.
The F2 is one of my cameras that doesn’t get used as much as it should as, and I have more than a couple of cameras in that category, so one of my photography goals for 2016 is, no buying of cameras or lenses (repair/replacement excepted, as needed)! Time to use more of what I have.
StandOff With a Squirrel
I only had a 50mm normal lens; I knew it and the squirrel knew it, and I couldn’t get closer without the squirrel scurrying off. I think the squirrel was silently chuckling.

Like a Mirror
Back to High Park, with the Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm/2.8 lens mounted on an old Spotmatic. The water was very still that chilly morning. Shot on Kodak Tmax 400.
