This town in Ontario won’t get as much press as the Paris in France, but is still worth visiting! I was out there earlier this year with some photography friends and had a lovely day.
I took all of these images with my Olympus OM-2n with a 25A red filter, on Rollei Retro 80s film.

Rollei Retro 80s as Infrared
Recently I have started using Rollei Retro 80s film with an IR 72 filter again, for an infrared look. On a bright sunny day at midday I rate the combo at EI 2, typically shooting a 1/2 second exposure at f/16. Even though this is not a true infrared film stock, I do like the look I get.
I took both images with my Rolleiflex 3.5E3 twinlens reflex. TLR’s and rangefinders are great for infrared work, compared to SLR’s as the IR 72 filter is almost completely opaque to visible light.


The Broadview Hotel
So much architecture has been lost in Toronto over the decades. I am glad the Broadview hotel was spared, and rehabilitated!
