My Breakfast

I’m currently obsessed with replicating the look of film photography on digital shots. I did a study of my breakfast this morning with that particular post-processing idea in mind. I think it looks pretty good, if I say so myself. This shall be an ongoing project, i.e., shooting my breakfast. If I were a breakfast…… Continue reading My Breakfast

Prickly

Been more than a little bit obsessed with househunting lately. Hence the lack of post. I didn’t even bother to make a birthday post. I turned a year older on Monday. And yes, I had a good birthday. I started a Flickr group called We Say NO to Photos and Videos on Flickr today. Join…… Continue reading Prickly

Dome and Light

We went to Winnipeg, Manitoba in February. People we know couldn’t understand why I’d want to go to Winterpeg — as they like to call it here — in the middle of winter. My one and only reason was, I’d never been there. I always think it’s a good enough reason to visit a place.…… Continue reading Dome and Light

East Meet West

I think I’m going to have to use different kinds of ND filter on my Polaroid SX-70 for different situations, i.e. ND2 for indoor and ND3 for outdoor because using ND3 indoor makes for some underexposed Polaroid shots. Thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster for free filter samplers. If you ever need some ND filters for…… Continue reading East Meet West

Frozen Cove

We’ve been going to this spot every year in March since 2005 and every time I was drawn to shoot the exact same spots I did the previous year. I really should make an attempt to see this place in a different way the next time we go there, which probably won’t happen until March…… Continue reading Frozen Cove

Bad Camouflage

I started scanning the negative of the pictures I took this past weekend with the Hasselblad but I have a sore throat, which never fails to make me feel miserable, and I don’t think I could do it. I’ll have to remember to make sure that the battery in my digital light meter is not…… Continue reading Bad Camouflage

Missed Opportunity

I’m no Lucky Luke. I don’t shoot faster than my own shadow. But I kind of like how this picture turns up. We were watching some seagulls being goofy (or dumb, depending on how you look at it) as we were enjoying our ice cream in Port Dover. Would’ve been able to take some more…… Continue reading Missed Opportunity

Omega

So we made our annual photo trip to Long Point Provincial Park this past Saturday. The weather was nice, though the sky could’ve been bluer. It was warm enough for me to walk around in a light sweater. Before arriving at the park, we stopped at a couple of spots to watch the migrating tundra…… Continue reading Omega

Inside/Outside

The Grain Exchange building was what you would’ve seen if you looked out of our hotel room window in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Canadians don’t call Winnipeg Winterpeg for nothing. It was seriously cold there, except for the first full day we had, which was nice and warm at -1°C. Sadly, the temperatures only went down from…… Continue reading Inside/Outside
