Wandering Around Hong Kong
After a visit to the top of Victoria Peak, Sarah and I wandered around Hong Kong a bit before heading back to our hotel.
Zoo Animals #4
I shot these photos on a roll of 30-year-old expired Agfa XRS 1000 that I purchased from a reputable seller on eBay. According to the seller, this film had been cold stored for its entire life. Maybe, maybe not. Regardless, high ISO films do not stand the test of time as well as low ISO […]
Tudor Garden
These photos are from the Tudor Garden found at Hamilton Gardens in New Zealand. This garden features mythical beasts holding shields and flags sitting atop green and white striped poles amidst a knot garden. Each of the flags features a Tudor rose, while each shield bears the coat of arms associated with the historical figure […]
Shooting Fuji F-64D
These photos of stone sculptures were shot on Fuji F-64D. Introduced in 1999 as part of Fuji’s Super F Series, this daylight-balanced motion picture film featured enhanced color reproduction with natural rendering of blue, green and yellow hues. A long, smooth tonal scale along with better performance in high-contrast outdoor lighting helped to increase its […]
A Matter of Perspective
I shot these Volkswagen Golfs from three different perspectives wanting to capture the colors of the cars.
Stephen Avenue
I shot these photos on Calgary’s historic Stephen Avenue one summer while on my way to Carifest.
On the Farm #2
My wife’s parents lived here but have since moved. It’s too bad. I really liked this place, especially the garden.
The Historic Village #2
These photos are from the Historic Village in Tauranga, New Zealand. It’s not as cool as Calgary’s Heritage Park, but it was still interesting to visit.
Shooting Fuji Eterna Vivid 160T
This is Fuji Eterna Vivid 160T. Introduced in 2007, this film was part of the Fuji motion picture line of films until Fuji ceased all motion picture manufacturing on March 31, 2013. Boasting intense color, high contrast, and exceptional image sharpness, Eterna Vivid 160T was the product of new technologies that Fuji developed at the […]
Ferrari 308 GTB
These photos of a Ferrari GTB 308 (my favourite car) were taken last month at the European Classic Car Meet. After the last car show I attended, I felt I needed a lens wider than the 35mm f/3.5 Takumar I had used that day. So a few months ago, I bought a 24mm f/3.5 Takumar […]
Gasoline Alley Museum
I took these photos in Gasoline Alley Museum at Heritage Park. The lighting wasn’t bright enough for a handheld shot, so I had to place my camera on anything nearby (a railing, a table, etc) in order to take a photo.
Rouleauville
I shot these photos on a walk through what was once known as ‘Rouleauville’, a Francophone settlement in the late 1800’s that was eventually annexed in 1907 by the city of Calgary as it grew.
Wintergardens #3
These photos of flowers are from the Auckland Domain Wintergardens. I had a great time shooting these flowers, but the Olympus Pen EED was not up to the task. The combination of an overcast day and an auto exposure camera that often chose a slow shutter speed meant that many of these photos are not […]
Inglewood Bird Sanctuary
Here are a few photos shot at the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary. Sadly, there are no birds in the photos, but you can see the historic home of Colonel James Walker in the background.
Shooting FPP InfraChrome Color Infrared 400
These photos were shot on FPP InfraChrome Color Infrared 400. I bought this roll back in 2016 and kept it in my freezer for a few years before I finally shot it around Calgary. I used a Tiffen #12 yellow filter to achieve the infrared color effect. Most of these photos were shot at ISO […]
