Another image from my recent shoot with Connie Crosby, this one taken with my Pen F Half frame, 50mm/1.4 Pentax M lens (via adapter) shot on Rollei Retro 80S. A Go-To portrait combo!

Low Sun
Writing this on a cloudy Saturday morning, I am thinking back to a very sunny Sunday morning a couple of weeks ago at the Beaches. I love the early morning angle of the sun! This is cropped from the original half-frame image, as someone edged into frame at the last minute.

Front of the Truck
Another Olympus Pen half Frame image from last Saturday in the distillery district. This is the front of the other pick-up truck that is gracefully decaying in the area.

Combinations
Yesterday I took part in an all day choral workshop as a member of the Exultate Chamber Singers, as we began preparing for our 2015-2016 season. The workshop took place in Toronto’s Distillery District, so at lunch I went out with my Olympus Pen F camera, with a Pentax M 50mm/1.4 lens, mounted via an $8 adapter to a Canon EOS to Olympus Pen adapter. Not nearly as cumbersome as it sounds, and coupled with a sharp fine-grained film such as the Rollei RPX 25 I think the combination works.
