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.

2018

My first post for 2018. I thought this image worked for the first day of the year. Hoping things are looking up.

Waiting for the Zamboni

This image was taken a couple of weeks ago on the roll I developed this week. At Nathan Phillip’s Square the rink is being cleared of skaters for the Zamboni machine.

After a Few Days

I have been in a funk photographically for a few days. Too busy to do much in the way of photography and not all that happy with the images I was taking. I did go out yesterday morning to Taylor Creek Park and finished off a roll languishing in a film back for my Hasselblad and got a few I liked.
