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.

Railroad Tracks

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, cross-processed, Fuji Velvia 100 No Comments

As I was putting this post together, it occurred to me that I have never processed Fuji Velvia 100 normally. I have only ever cross-processed this film. As much as I like this look, fortunately, I have a few more rolls left and will have to develop the next one in E6 chemistry. These photos […]

Xi’an Muslim Quarter Part 4

35mm, black & white, China, Olympus Trip 35, Street Candy ATM 400 2 Comments

The night market in Xi’an’s Muslim Quarter is every street photographer’s dream. There is so much to see and experience. The entire street is lit up so bright that you can easily shoot with 100 ISO film even though it’s night. I could have spent the entire night snapping pictures had I brought more film […]

A Street in Chengdu

35mm, black & white, China, FPP Derev Pan 200, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

Sarah & I wandered down this street one afternoon in Chengdu and we discovered a shop where you could have your name carved in Chinese characters onto a stamp. We thought it would make a great memento of our trip and we bought a matching pair of stamps. I took these photos while we waited.

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 […]

35mm, Agfa XRG 200, Alberta, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000 No Comments

These photos are from in and around Banff. The first two photos are of Cascade Ponds, just across the highway from Banff. Sarah and I met up with a friend here and spent an afternoon catching up. I ended up with a terrible sunburn.

Cows of Authie

I photographed these cows just outside Authie in Normandy. That big cow wasn’t too happy that I was photographing the calfs.

Burnsland Cemetery

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, cross-processed, Lomography Slide / X-Pro 200 No Comments

I shot these while wandering around Burnsland Cemetery when I was first experimenting with cross-processed film. I like some of the statues in Burnsland, but overall I don’t think it’s as picturesque as Union Cemetery, which is right across the street.

Sliver

35mm, black & white, Canon Canonet QL17 Giii, FPP B&W 100, New Zealand No Comments

The name of this sculpture is Sliver. It was created by Virginia King and is a symbol of time. Sarah and I were walking in Newmarket (a suburb of Auckland) when we came upon the sculpture and I knew I had to photograph it.

Olympic Plaza Part 2

During the Calgary 1988 Winter Olympics, the medal ceremonies were held downtown at Olympic Plaza. Today, Olympic Plaza is a public gathering space open for everyone to enjoy. In winter, the plaza is turned into a public skating rink, and in summer, it is sometimes flooded to become a wading pool.

These photos are all from Caen Castle, or the Château de Caen as it is known in French. The castle and surrounding grounds were originally built by William the Conqueror before he left to conquer England. Today, the castle grounds are home to many buildings including the Musée de Normandie and Le Mancel Restaurant du […]

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.
