Shooting CineStill 400D

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, CineStill 400D No Comments

Earlier this year, CineStill announced the release of a new color film: CineStill 400 Dynamic! Many have assumed that this is the same emulsion as Kodak’s Vision3 cinema film, but without the Remjet layer. CineStill has assured us that it is, in fact, a new emulsion. Either way, I picked up 2 early bird rolls […]

More Adox Color Mission 200

35mm, Adox Color Mission 200, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Fujica ST801 No Comments

Here are some more photos from my first roll of Adox Color Mission 200. Hopefully these photos capture more of the color saturation that this film offers. Take a look at the white picket fence in the first two photos (above and below). Notice how differently the white fence renders in each of the photos? […]

Shooting Adox Color Mission 200

35mm, Adox Color Mission 200, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Fujica ST801 No Comments

Back in April, I picked up 3 rolls of Adox Color Mission 200. These photos are from the only roll I have shot so far. If you don’t know the backstory behind Adox Color Mission, here it is in brief: Adox collaborated with an unnamed company to create a new color film, but after the […]

Casablanca Lily #2

C-41, cross-processed, Fuji CDU II, Mamiya C220, medium (120), square No Comments

I shot these photos on Fuji CDU II that I purchased from Northern Film Lab on eBay. I picked up 3 rolls in 120, however, the film was cut down from wider 70mm film stock and therefore has perforations along one side. Fuji CDU II is duplicating film and is meant to be shot at […]

Canada Goose

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Konica Centuria Super 400 No Comments

The Canada goose is often considered a nuissance, probably because they can turn a beautiful grassy field into one covered with their excrement. On this day, they allowed me to photograph them relaxing in the morning sun.

When Light Meters Die

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Kodak Max Versatility 400, Lomo LC-A No Comments

This single photo is all that turned out on a 24-exposure roll of expired Kodak Max Versatility 400. It’s too bad because I was looking forward to seeing the photos I had taken while on a photo walk downtown last summer. I believe the other photos were lost, not because the film is expired — […]

This is one of the few good photos I got from a roll of LomoChrome Metropolis that I shot in my Diana Mini.

Geese on Ice

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Canonet QL17 Giii, Ferrania Solaris FG Plus 200 No Comments

The Bow River often freezes over during winter. While it is not unusual to see geese on the ice, I wasn’t expecting to find an overturned shopping cart that looked like it had been thrown from the bridge.

Trio

On the west side of the new Calgary Public Library building are two of three kinetic sculptures that move back and forth like a drinking birds. This art installation is called Trio and was designed and built by artist Christian Moeller.

East Village

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Canonet QL17 Giii, Ferrania Solaris FG Plus 200 No Comments

These photos are from a photowalk I took recently around the East Village. This part of downtown has undergone a lot of redevelopment over the last few years and I thought it was time to take a camera and go exploring.

Eau Claire

Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Kodak Six-20 Model C, light leaks, Lomography F² 400, medium (120) 2 Comments

I shot these photos in Eau Claire (downtown Calgary) along the river. It’s pretty clear that my Kodak Six-20 Model C has some light leaks. I’m not sure where the leaks originated since I had the camera taped up and my examination of the bellows when I got the camera didn’t reveal any pin prick […]

Casablanca Lily

Agfa Optima 200, C-41, Mamiya C220, medium (120), square No Comments

These are Casablanca Lilies and they are a varietal of the oriental lily. A few months ago I decided that I wanted to try my hand at photographing flowers. I bought a bouquet of lilies at the supermarket, grabbed a vase and some decorative black rocks, and arranged them all together. Then I sat back […]

Shooting Kodak SO-554

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, half-frame, Kodak SO-554 200, light leaks, Olympus Pen EED No Comments

These photos were shot on Kodak SO-554 200 film — a film I know almost nothing about. I came across this mysterious film one day while shopping online and quickly bought 3 rolls. All I can tell you is that the SO stands for ‘special order’ and the 554 is the order number. Kodak SO-554 […]

Camera Review: Olympus Pen EED

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Camera Reviews, Canada, half-frame, Kodak SO-554 200, light leaks, Olympus Pen EED No Comments

Inspired by Katie’s Half-Frame Diary, I decided that I needed a half-frame camera myself. I love the look of two half-frames scanned together. The two images form a diptych and the juxtaposition offers a unique opportunity for photographic storytelling. It’s something that I’m eager to experiment with. I already own a Diana Mini, and while […]

Bearspaw Classic Car Show and Shine

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Kodak Ektar 100 No Comments

Every summer, I try to attend as many interesting events as I can and bring along a camera. In the past, I’ve attended and photographed hot air ballooning, show jumping, live music, the Calgary Comic Expo, and the engine run-up on a WWII Lancaster bomber, to name a few. But since the pandemic started, I […]

Flat Santa

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon EOS 3, Fuji Super HG V 400 No Comments

It’s not uncommon to see deflated and flat Santas, reindeer, snowmen, etc. on people’s lawns during the day over the Christmas season. Then they all get plugged in and reinflated in the evening.
