Curved Bench

I like this bench (at a Park near the Beaches). At some point I will need to go back with a view camera and stop right down to get it all sharp.

Winter Sun

There is something about winter sun in Toronto (other than the fact we don’t get a lot of it). I love its brightness and clarity. I also love the way Rollei RXP 25 film picks it up. This image is from a couple of weeks ago, taken near the Beaches with my Rolleiflex 3.5E3.

Forgotten Frames

I had no idea what was on the roll of film this image came from when I developed it. I do like the complicated light in this image.

Framing Trees

Back to Lethbridge Alberta: I love frames within a photograph, and the way these trees on either side framed the more distant view was very appealing to me when I saw it.

Two Arches

It was a very bright day in downtown Toronto today, and the low midwinter sun made for start,dramatic lighting. I loved how the sun was hitting the front arch in this space on the Esplanade.

The Silence of Snow and Ice

This image was taken in a park in Lethbridge, Alberta on a Sunday morning in my recent trip out west. The trees were covered in a frost from a combination of fog and very low temperatures. There was no wind, and the sky was softly overcast. The silence was lovely.
