If you are a resident of Toronto, these images inside the Eaton Centre border on cliche, but it was still fun shooting with the 20mm Nikkor lens.

MPP 51: The Other Side of the lens
This week I speak with model/musican Kristen Au and her partner Karl Johnson about the challenges of modelling, and in particular life/art/nude modelling. It is a profession that does not get the respect it deserves.
Here is an example of work I have done with Kristen in the past.

In the Airport In Winnipeg
Waiting for my flight yesterday in Winnipeg the geometry of the window and empty seats caught my eye.

Back to St. James
Recently I returned to St. James Cemetery, this time with my recently acquired 20mm Nikkor wide angle lens. It was bright morning and the low angled sun provided a lot of interesting lighting. All images were taken on a Nikon F4, using Kodak TMax 400 film.
In Front of the Church
I liked how the tree worked with the exaggerated perspective of the 20mm super wide lens.

My Photography Podcast Episode 50: Frame of Mind
https://www.podbean.com/media/player/3zavz-688946?from=yiiadmin
For my 50th episode I thought it most appropriate to have as my guest my dear friend Ken Bole AKA “Scarborough Dude” who helped me get my start in podcasting over a decade ago. Ken describes his first camera, and how photography was different in the past compared to today. The show ends off with a piece of original music!
Velvia Blue
Today another image from the roll of Velvia 50 slide film I shot recently at the Toronto Harbour. I continued to be amazed at what this film does for skies!

Painting a Building
This building is right next door to Union Station in Toronto, and the combination of time of day, brilliant sunshine and some nearby glass and steel made for some interesting light patterns.
