Filtering

I was very happy to see the effect of a yellow filter (meant to adjust contrast and keep blue skies from getting blown out) when using the JCH Streetpan 400 film recently.

University Residence

I liked the look of this tree in front of a residence on the University of Toronto campus in the bright morning sun last Sunday.

Unreality

I’ve noticed these mannequins in Kensington Market in Toronto a number of times. To me the more lifelike a mannequin is, the less real it looks.

Only in Colour

Today I’m posting one more image from Bluffer’s Beach on January 1st, 2017. It was originally shot in black and white (the only film I had with me), but the image really didn’t work that way, so I added so hand tinting with pencil crayons to a inkjet print.

The World of a Child # 2

Another image from my shoot last Saturday. This image was taken with my Nikon F4S and the Nikkor 105mm/2.5 lens, which is one of the greatest portrait lenses of all time.

Decay

On a recent Toronto Film Shooters walk, this decaying bicycle seat caught my eye, and the brilliant sunshine of the day made for dramatic lighting.
