Window Light

In the Starbucks on Front Street in Toronto last Saturday. Great window light made for a scene I had to capture.

Bumping Into a Friend

Last Saturday while out as part of one Photowalk, while a couple of us were in a Starbucks another film photographer friend Sean Patenaude walked in. The light coming in through the window was perfect.

Another Fish Creek Image

Work has made it a challenge to blog for a few days, but hoping to change that! In the meantime, another image from Fish Creek Provincial Park in Calgary. Considering how sunny and comparatively warm it was there this past week, it’s hard to believe it was this cold and wintery just a few weeks ago.

Cinestill 800T

Thanks to my friends at Downtown Camera in Toronto, I was able to get a test roll of Cinestill 800T film in medium format to try out. This is motion picture stock. This film has the remjet backing removed, making it safe to process in standard C-41 kits. It’ a high speed (ISO 800) film, but I shot it at EI 640. Despite the fact that it is Tungsten balanced (for incandescent lighting) I found my outdoor sunny day images on the test roll were very easy to colour correct in post.
