First Shoot of 2018

For the last few years I have a tradition where I make a point of going out to shoot film on January 1st, regardless of the weather or how I feel. It means it’s one more year where I can say I shot film, regardless of whatever else happens.

Yesterday morning was bright and sunny (but rather chilly). A good day to shoot at Bluffer’s Park in Scarborough, Ontario with my good friend Bill Smith.

Drawn Again to High Park

This past Saturday, after getting my Voigtlander Bessa back from my friend Alex Luyckx who had borrowed it for a review, I headed off to High Park. It was a beautiful sunny day, and the very wet spring in Toronto has made for a lot of lush vegetation and comfortable shade.

Dead trees at Fish Creek

There are a lot of fallen trees at Fish Creek Provincial Park in Calgary, making an interesting contrast with those still living.
