The Tones I Wanted
One more from the icy shores of Lake Ontario. This one took some work in post: burning in the sky, and dodging the snow to get the tones I wanted.

A Sunny Sunday Morning
While we have gone back to our typical weekend overcast this afternoon, it was actually bright and sunny in the Beaches this morning.

Refusing to Die
On the shores of Lake Ontario, this tree is more stump than anything, but still manages to produce a few leaves. There is nothing strong than the will to live it seems. From a technical point of view, I do like the combination of Microdol-X developer and HP5+.

Canoe In a Garden
At the entrance to the Glen Stewart Ravine in The Beaches is a canoe that has been worked into a garden.

The Fine Grain Quest Continues
Another fine grain film I tried recently is Agfa Copex Rapid. It is similar to Adox CMS 20 II.

The Ravine in Colour
Recently I have posted a number of images taken in the Glen Stewart Ravine in the Beaches areas of Toronto. Today, a colour image. The day I took this was a brief interval between rain showers, and there was quite a sense of lushness, despite the fact of it being the fall.

Another Fine Grain Film
In yesterday’s post I featured images created using long discontinued Kodak Technical Pan. Thankfully, there is a worthy successor still being made today: Rollei ATP 1.1. This is another slow speed film with extremely fine grain and sharpness, but also requiring special handling in development. This first roll was developed using Rollei RLC Low contrast developer, which does a great job, but is not cheap. I have more of this film coming, and I will test one roll using Rodinal, a much less expensive developer, to see if I can get comparable results.
