Elbow Falls in Winter #2
This is one of the few good photos I got from a roll of LomoChrome Metropolis that I shot in my Diana Mini.
A Bunny in the Bramble
Sarah and I came across this little bunny rabbit living in the bramble alongside the beach one day as we walked along Jericho Beach.
Geese on Ice
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.
Chinese Cemetery
Calgary’s Chinese Cemetery dates back to 1908 and is the burial site for many of the city’s early Chinese pioneers.
Cycling Around the Yangshuo Countryside #2
These are from a bicycle tour that Sarah & I took around the Yangshuo countryside in China. They were taken with my Olympus Trip 35, and while the Trip 35 is small enough to fit in a coat pocket, it does not fit in the pockets of my shorts. I had to carry it in […]
Calgary Skyline #2
These photos of Calgary’s skyline were shot from Union Cemetery and are from the same roll as the last post’s photos.
Union Cemetery #5
I shot these photos at Union Cemetery 7 or 8 years ago when I decided to get back into film photography. I was exploring parts of the city I had never visited before and the cemetery fascinated me. As a result, I have way too many photos of Union Cemetery including photos of gravestones shot […]
At Home
Inspired by Katie’s ‘At Home’ series on Katie Shoots Film, here is my own homage to photos taken at home.
Canada House
This beachfront house in Bernières-sur-Mer, France is the home of Hervé & Nicole Hoffer. Known as ‘Canada House’, it was originally owned by Hervé’s grandfather and was the first house liberated on D-Day by the Allies. Over the years, Hervé has turned his home into a museum and shrine to the members of the Queen’s […]
Beijing
I believe these were the first two photos I shot when I arrived in Beijing. They were taken in the neighbourhood surrounding the hotel I stayed in.
Buildings #2
Buildings in Calgary: the National Music Centre, the Calgary Public Library, a parking garage, and old City Hall.
Bayeux
These photos were shot in Bayeux, a town in Normandy, France. I spent a few nights in Bayeux, using it as a home base to explore many of the surrounding towns and WWII battlefields. I even had the opportunity to wander freely inside the Bayeux Cathedral, which was consecrated in 1077 by William the Conqueror’s […]
Around Notre Dame
These were all taken around Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris a few years ago before the devastating fire.
A Market in Yangshuo
Sarah and I did a cycling tour around the Yangshuo countryside in 2019 when we went to China. These photos are from a market that we visited that day.
Bearspaw Classic Car Show and Shine #3
These are the last of my photos from the Bearspaw Classic Car Show and Shine. If you’re interested in seeing them, photos from the first set and second set have already been posted.
Ho Chi Minh City
These photos are from Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) in Vietnam. While touring Vietnam, I had a day off to explore on my own and shoot some photographs. These photos feature the Independence Palace (aka Reunification Palace) and its front gate (where in 1975, a tank of the North Vietnamese Army bulldozed into it, […]
Royal Palace #2
Here are some more photos from the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. What I most remember about that day is that it was incredibly bright and I didn’t have a wide enough lens to capture everything I wanted in the frame.
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
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.
Bearspaw Classic Car Show and Shine #2
Here are more photos from the Bearspaw Classic Car Show and Shine.
