By the Shore

I believe these are birdhouses by the shores of the pond in High Park, but part of me can’t help imagining they are letter boxes, with the letter carrier delivering mail by canoe. 🙂

A New View of an Old Tree

I have shot this tree in High Park a few times over the years, but this was the first time using my Hasselblad (and the 150mm/4 Sonnar lens, on Rollei Retro 80s film). I love the look of this tree (as do a lot of other visitors, you definitely have to wait your turn and time it right to get an unobstructed image!)

Also, this week’s MPP podcast is out. I geek out about my Rolleiflex

A Change In Plans

On Sunday I went to High Park to do some shooting that required a bright sunny sky. I didn’t get the sky I wanted, so I switched gears and went into one of the forest trails, where the light was deep and moody.

Royal Botanical Gardens

From my recent trip to the Royal Botanical Gardens. I loved the look of this raised wooden walkway as it wound its way through a forest.

Glen Stewart Ravine

I was in the Glen Stewart Ravine in the Beaches last weekend. Everything is so green and alive! (Although the tree stump in the second image leaves me wishing I could have seen the tree when it was alive). All images taken with Hasselblad 500C/M, 50mm/4 Distagon lens on Kodak Ektar 100 film.
