Back to Niagara On-the-Lake for another street shot; I don’t know what distracted the two kids from looking away from the window into a ice cream parlour …

Deeper Than Any Forest Primeval
I guess I’m an old softie at heart: one of my favourite love songs is “Longer” by Dan Fogelberg. As I was out yesterday morning in High Park in the forest path near Keele Station, the dim light from the morning overcast and the silence reminded me of a line from the song:
“Deeper than any forest primeval, I am in love with you.”
The forest did feel very deep and moody yesterday, and these three images for me capture the mood. All were created using my Nikon N90s 35mm SLR, 17mm/3.5 Tamron Ultra-wide angle lens, shot on Rollei RPX400 film, developed in Perceptol.
Fearless
Recently I bumped into my photographer friend Leon Bonin, near Downtown Camera in Toronto. When it comes to street photography, Leon is absolutely fearless; he will ask anyone if he can take his/her picture, and he gets great results.
From a technical point of view, I am very happy with the combination of HP5+ film (not know for super fine grain) and Perceptol developer. Reasonably tight grain, and nice tonality!

Outside Union Station, Toronto
The obvious theme for Union Station is transportation, but it’s not just about trains and buses.
Both images taken with Nikon N90s, 17mm/3.5 Tamron SP lens
