A nasty cold/flu bug has severely curtailed my shooting and posting recently, but I did get out this past Friday to Allan Gardens here in Toronto, shooting with my Sony a7ii and new TTArtisan 75mm f/1.5 lens. This lens will take some learning, but I love the look!
I was at Allan Gardens in Toronto yesterday morning with fellow photographers, and I brought along my “cookie” lens to use on my Sony a6100 body for exterior images. Such a fun lens to use!
I don’t do a lot of flower photography, but when I went to Allan Gardens last weekend in addition to my film gear I brought my Nikon D7100 DSLR with my 55mm/3.5 Micro-Nikkor lens. What stuck me about this scene was the contrast between the beauty of the flowers and the grimy background.
Three images from my visit to Allan Gardens in Toronto last weekend. A light dusting of snow made for an interesting scene.

I recently bought some Lomography brand C-41 400 speed colour film and am happy with the results so far! This image was taken inside the Greenhouse in the Allan Gardens in Toronto. I used my Rolleiflex 3.5E3, with a Rollinar #2 close-up lens attached.
