Last Summer when I was in Quebec meeting up with good friends, I shot one roll of slide film (Fuji Provia 100). It was already expired, stored at room temperature, and I left it sitting around for months before getting it developed. I’m surprised it turned out as well as it did! This lighthouse is in Montreal, and both images were taken with my Rolleiflex 3.5E3 (Xenotar lens).
I had this roll of film sitting in my Rolleiflex for a few weeks and finally finished it yesterday, and developed it last night. This row of trees is one of the more photographed spots in High Park; easy to see why!

TMax 400 film @ E.I. 200, slight pull in development
The artist this time around is my good friend Alex Luijckx, one of the key drivers of the Toronto film shooter community, and founder/co-host of the Classic Camera Revival podcast. (I am also one of the hosts of this show.)
This portrait was taken at a film shooter community gathering last weekend. Alex is shooting his Nikon F5.

Fuji Reala C-41 film
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.

Rollei RPX 25 film, developed in Rodinal (Adonal) 1+50
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.
