Reflections

I was downtown here in Toronto yesterday for the Classic Camera Revival Podcast 10 year anniversary photo walk. I was shooting again with my vintage Soviet-era Industar 61 L/D 55mm f/2.8 lens. I love how this lens is very sharp, but still renders in a pleasing way. This scene of reflections caught my eye.

Williamson Park Ravine

Yesterday morning I was out with friends in the WIlliamson Park Ravine in the eastern part of Toronto. The tree canopy is quite dense here, but sunlight will poke through the shadows creating an almost spotlight effect. All images taken with my Sony a7ii body and an old Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 lens.

Stairs Into The Ravine

I have a list of photographic ideas and locations I want to try, and on that list is the stairs into the north end of the Glen Stewart Ravine in East Toronto, shot with my 4mm circular fish-eye lens, so that was my outing yesterday morning. Here are two black and white images, along with a faux-infrared treatment.

Kingston Road, Near Warden

Out this morning in the Kingston Road / Warden area in Toronto / Scarborough. A neighbourhood of contrasts. My eye was drawn to the decay. All images taken with a Sony a6100 body and 7.5mm f/3.5 fisheye lens.

A Foreboding Sunny Morning

I was out at the Beaches in Toronto on Sunday morning. The sun was bright and dazzling, the sky a cheerful blue.

But give the current circumstances given the chaos south of the border in the US, I cannot help but see foreboding in every image.

TTC Fisheye

I was out with photography friends this week, in the northwest portion of the TTC Line One subway. Iwas shooting with my 4mm f/2.8 spherical fisheye lens, and I like the results I got.
