Statues at Government Gardens

statue at Government Gardens, Rotorua, NZ

These are photos of a few of the statues on the grounds surrounding Government Gardens in Rotorua, New Zealand. I quite like the way the first photo turned out. I love the look of Kodak Tri-X 400. It is an absolutely beautiful B&W film.

When Expired Film Goes Bad

35mm, Agfa CT Precisa 200, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, color shift No Comments

I shoot a lot of expired film. Occasionally, I come across old film that has somehow managed to defy aging. This is usually because it was properly stored over its lifetime. Ferrania Solaris FG 100 and Perutz Primera 100 are two films I own that still look good a decade after the expiry date. And […]

Star Wars AT-AT

Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Instax Mini, instant, Lomography Diana F+, toy camera No Comments

I own a Diana F+ camera with ‘all the fixins’. I bought the deluxe kit one year and also picked up the Instant Back. The result is that it’s a lot of fun to use all the Diana’s lenses while shooting Instax Mini. I shot this at a friend’s place on Fuji Instax Mini (Star […]

Random Shots from Pearce Estate Park

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Kodak BW400CN 2 Comments

I shot these on Kodak BW400CN, a chromogenic B&W film, which isn’t a true B&W film as it is designed to be processed in C-41 chemistry. I’m not a fan of this film and wasn’t sad to see Kodak discontinue its production. I shot these while wandering around Pearce Estate Park.

old Willans family barn at Fish Creek Park

One winter, I hiked through Fish Creek Park and snapped these photos with my Superheadz Blackbird, Fly TLR. The first photo (#1103) is of the Willans Family barn which was demolished a few years ago. The old log barn was built around 1910 by Norman Willans using white spruce trees that line the banks of […]

Cameras

Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Pro 400H, Mamiya C220, medium (120), square No Comments

These are a few of my smaller cameras. I shot these a few years ago when I first got my Mamiya C220 TLR and a small studio light box. I was quite disappointed with the way these turned out and I’ve never bought another roll of Fuji Pro 400H film.

Damaged Headstones

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Svema FN64 No Comments

On one of my many trips to Union Cemetery, I shot these B&W photos of damaged and deteriorating headstones. Many of these headstones date back to the early days of Calgary’s settlement and it’s rather sad to see the loss of history. Hopefully, by capturing a few photos I can do my part to preserve […]

Fishing off the Coast of Arromanches

35mm, black & white, Canon Rebel 2000, France, Svema A2SH 400 No Comments

I shot these photos in 2015 while on a tour of Canadian World War II battlefields in France. These are from Arromanches in Normandy. Arromanches is the location of Gold Beach where the British landed on D-Day and built a Mulberry harbour out of huge concrete caissons, many of which can still be seen off […]

Around Town with the Diana Baby 110

110, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Lomography Diana Baby 110, Lomography Peacock Slide / X-Pro 200, square, toy camera No Comments

I recently picked up the Diana Baby 110 from Lomography. Since I already own and love the Diana F+ and the Diana Mini, I had high hopes for this camera. The Diana Baby 110 is a delightful little camera, but sadly the resulting photos were a disappointment. Most of the roll turned out as complete […]

Shooting Valca Film

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Caffenol, Calgary, Canada, Canon EOS 3, Self-Portrait Challenge, Valca Grano Fino Positiva 6 No Comments

I like shooting rare and expired film. I like it when I discover an old film that not only still produces good results, but also has a unique look or color palette. These are from a roll of Valca Grano Fino Positiva cinematic film that I purchased from Labeauratoire. Since Valca has a recommended ISO […]

My wife gave me a Lab-Box for Christmas this year and I’ve started developing my own film. These were developed using Rodinal (or Blazinal as it is branded here in Canada).

Wandering Heritage Park

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, cross-processed, Fuji Velvia 100 1 Comment

Heritage Park is one of those places where there is lots to see and photograph. Over the years, I have managed to shoot many rolls of film there. I believe this is the first roll of Velvia 100 that I ever cross-processed and, once I saw the results, I instantly fell in love with the […]

Widgeon Creek

35mm, BC, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, cross-processed, Fuji Provia 100F No Comments

These are from a canoe trip on Widgeon Creek that I took with my friend Barry. I’ve done this trip before and will probably do it again one day. It’s always fun.

Rundle Ruins Model Shoot

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Calgary, Canada, Canon EOS 3, JCH Street Pan 400 No Comments

A while back, I participated in a model shoot at Rundle Ruins. I shot both film and digital, and as the sun set and the light faded, it made film photography challenging. Many photos were underexposed. Thankfully, these photos of Dana turned out quite well.

Attack of the Swan

35mm, black & white, Canon Canonet QL17 Giii, Kodak Tri-X 400, New Zealand No Comments

As Sarah and I took a walk around Lake Rotorua, I spotted this couple enjoying the lake beneath the shade of a tree… and I spotted a swan swimming nearby. This unsuspecting couple never saw it coming until it was too late… but thankfully I did. And so I hung around and did my best […]

Screen Time Part 2

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Calgary, Canada, Canon Canonet QL17 Giii, Rollei Blackbird 100 No Comments

I’ve been rather disappointed with the results I get from Rollei film. Rollei Blackbird did little to change that. These were some of the best from the roll. On another note: Rollei Blackbird is the 100th film I’ve posted to Going Lomo.
