Today. two more portraits of my good friend Jennifer, both taken using my Hasselblad 500C/M and 150 Zeiss Sonnar lens on Kodak Portra 400 film. Jennifer is capable of so many great expressions!
Another Three Portraits of Jennifer
Today another three portraits if my good friend and frequent collaborator Jennifer. This shoot was a experiment on two fronts: it was the first time I tried shooting a hand-held portrait with my 4×5 Speed Graphic and 127mm/4.7 Kodak Ektar lens, and it was the first time I tried shooting some Fuji NC 160 4×5 colour sheet film I’ve had for a while.
Portrait in the Pub
Today a portrait of my friend and fellow podcaster Mike, taken in a pub using my Pentax ME 35mm camera. I haven’t used this camera much recently but got it out for the April episode of the Classic Camera Revival podcast, where Pentax was the topic of the day. The lens was a 50mm/1.7 and I was shooting wide-open on Tri-X film.
Shore Stripes
A large (temporary) pond is making the Beaches an interesting place right now. Planning to go back with a medium format camera later this week!

Toronto in Colour
This image is from the first roll of colour film I’ve developed at home in quite a while. The ice rink at Nathan Phillips Square is long gone, but the water for the summer has not been topped up, so this in-between time made for some great reflections.

I also talk about C-41 home colour processing with my kit from Argentix.
Building in Sunlight
I like the look of buildings in bright morning sunlight: angles and edges look especially sharp and defined. This is Metropolitan United Church in downtown Toronto.

Extremes
I love the extreme perspective that the Nikkor 20m/2.8 lens gives to even the most commonplace of structures

Outside the Graveyard
The combination of the glove and the spike on the fence caught my eye.
