Shooting on Instax

Alberta, BC, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Instax Wide, instant, Lomography Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter No Comments

I also bought an Instant Back for my Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter. It’s a lot of fun (my niece and nephew love it!) even though it’s not the easiest thing to use. Fuji Instax film is notoriously sensitive to light and even though it’s rated at ISO 800, I think it behaves more like ISO […]

Redscale Penguins

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon EOS 3, Lomography Redscale XR 50-200, redscale No Comments

I took these back in June using my Canon EOS 3 and a roll of Lomography Redscale XR 50-200 film. I love the golden yellow and orange tones of this film! To get this effect, I shot this film at ISO 50. The penguins in the pictures are Humboldt penguins. They are native to Chile […]

Shooting with Adox Color Implosion at Heritage Park

35mm, Adox Color Implosion 100, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000 No Comments

These were shot at Heritage Park at the start of summer using Adox Color Implosion film. I love this film because it has the right amount of grain giving it a vintage look from the ’70s. These were all shot at box speed (hence the cooler tones), but if you shoot this film at ISO […]

Double Exposure

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Four Corner Color 400, multiple exposure, Superheadz Ultra Wide & Slim, toy camera No Comments

Here are another two photos from Ralph Klein Park shot with my Superheadz Ultra Wide & Slim. When I got this roll back from the lab, I discovered some weird double exposures on the film. I have no idea how it happened except that it must have already been present on the film when I […]

UWS: Ralph Klein Park

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Four Corner Color 400, Superheadz Ultra Wide & Slim, toy camera No Comments

I had heard so much about the Ultra Wide & Slim (UWS) that when I bought one I was both excited and disappointed. Vivitar made the original Ultra Wide & Slim camera that rose to cult status. Superheadz from Japan makes clones in many different colours. But just because they are clones doesn’t mean that […]

Holga Winter

Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Holga 120 CFN, Lomography Color 400, medium (120), square, toy camera No Comments

These are from my very first roll of 120 film shot with a Holga 120 CFN. First I watched a YouTube video on how to load a Holga, then I painstakingly loaded my Holga with a roll of Lomography Color 400 film, taped up the body of the Holga to prevent light leaks, and headed […]

Scotsman’s Hill

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Superia X-tra 400, Lomography Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter, panorama, sprockets No Comments

I bought a Belair X 6-12 Jetsetter with a 35mm Back from Lomography. I love the 35mm Back because it lets me shoot panoramas that are 3 conventional 35mm frames long with the sprockets exposed! These were the first photos I took with the 35mm Back and were shot in the summer of 2014 from […]

Some Final Shots from the Zoo

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Kodak UltraMax 400, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

These are the last of my photos from the Calgary Zoo back in February 2014. I had hoped to take more photos of the penguins, but I ran out of film.

Here’s a few shots of the Bactrian camels at the Calgary Zoo.

More Elephants

These were shot with some expired film I picked up online.

Elephants

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Superia 200, Lomography La Sardina Splendour, toy camera No Comments

I purchased a La Sardina Splendour camera online from Lomography and while I love the look of the camera, I struggled to take photos with it this day. At one point, the back of the camera popped off and two shots were overexposed! *sigh* I learned that you really need to commit to one camera […]

Ektachrome Elephants

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, cross-processed, Kodak Ektachrome 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

The Calgary Zoo has since gotten rid of its elephants, which is a good thing since I believe it was far too cold for them.

Frozen

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, cross-processed, Kodak Ektachrome 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

Even though it was a warm day, things are still quite frozen in Calgary in February.

Ektachrome Trees

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, cross-processed, Kodak Ektachrome 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

The colour of the sky in these photos is one reason why I love Kodak Ektachrome film.

Cross-Processed Ektachrome

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, cross-processed, Kodak Ektachrome 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

These are from the first roll of E-6 slide film I ever cross-processed and I was quite thrilled with some of the results. Kodak Ektachrome has since become one of my favourite films. It’s a shame that Kodak no longer produces it. These three shots are of the Grey Wolf enclosure at the Calgary Zoo. […]

Feeding Time for the Great Grey Owl

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Kodak ProFoto XL 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

I snapped a number of shots in the raptor enclosure on my Calgary Zoo photo walk. The owls were often hidden and therefore hard to photograph, but I managed to get a shot of a great grey owl. Scattered all about the enclosure were dead chicks for the owls to eat. It may seem cruel […]

Rocky Mountain Goats

35mm, Alberta, Calgary, Canada, Kodak ProFoto XL 100, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

I managed to snap a few more photos of the Rocky Mountain goats at the Calgary Zoo. This time I loaded my Olympus Trip 35 with Kodak ProFoto XL 100 and snapped away. These were developed at my local lab and then scanned by me using an Epson Perfection V600 Photo.

First Photos at the Zoo

35mm, Alberta, black & white, Calgary, Canada, Four Corner B&W 400, Olympus Trip 35 No Comments

I signed up for a photo walk at the Calgary Zoo and brought along my Olympus Trip 35 and a few rolls of film. These are the first photos from that day.
