Four Portraits

Last week I was at a Street Photography workshop. Btu so far my favourite images are not those of strangers on the street, but of fellow photographers. All images taken with Rolleiflex 3.5 E3 (Xenotar lens) on Rollei RPX 400 film.

Pre-Season

Today i got some E6 (slide) film back that I had shot a few weeks ago at the large Beach Volleyball area at Ashbridges Bay here in Toronto. The scene looked a bit surrealistic to me.

Dealing With the Wires

I love the look of the old firehall in the Beaches, but I have never gotten an image of the entire building that I am completely happy with. If only all those wires were underground!

Another shooter at work

This past Thursday evening I met up with some fellow film photography friends at the Beaches / Ashbridge’s Bay for some evening shooting. We saw this videographer who was setting up a sunset time lapse video.

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.

I Just Liked the Colours

I was out last Sunday afternoon shooting a roll of Portra 400 through my early 1970’s Minox EL 35 (at the time the smallest full frame 35mm camera ever made). There is nothing breathtaking about this scene but I just liked the juxtaposition of the colours, especially with the red car.
