I love this old building on Queen Street East in Toronto, near the River St. bridge. Glass and steel just doesn’t do it for me the way an old building like this does.

I am a big fan of Art Deco, and I love the exterior of the GO transit station in Hamilton, Ontario. A fine example of this style.

Another image from The Hamilton G.A.S. Meet up last weekend. After a brilliantly sunny morning, it clouded over at lunch time, but even the overcast light seems to suit the Polypan F film I used.

These two images are from last weekend GAS meet-up / Photowalk in Hamilton ON. As the group strolled around, we came upon this little enclave downtown. A lovely surprise location! In the first image walk leader Alex is taking a peek. The second image is a view inside the garden.

Not far from our family home is a lawn bowling club that Janice and I often pass by during evening walks. When open it is full of bowlers, but right now it is quiet in the pre-season, with only the long evening shadows.

Yesterday the Classic Camera Revival Podcast (of which I am one of hosts) held a film photography meet-up in Hamilton, Ontario. G.A.S. stands for “Gear Acquisition Syndrome” the desire for film shooters to always get one more piece of gear. 🙂 I took this portrait of one of the attendees with my Kodak Medalist 620 camera, using respooled Ilford HP5+ film, developed in Ilfosol 3.
OK, so I am the last person on earth to start watching Game of Thrones (hey, photography takes up a lot of time!) so when I was at the old Eastern Avenue Bridge last weekend, a couple of times some of the structure reminded me of coats of arms.

I recently went back to the remnants of the old Eastern Avenue bridge in the lower Don Valley. The intersecting jumble of old steel caught my eye.

Still avoiding the cliche image 🙂 This is looking in the opposite direction.
