Massey-Harris Tractor

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Fuji Super G 800, Fujica ST801 No Comments

I photographed this Massey-Harris tractor at the Calgary Corn Maze and Farm. On a previous visit, it was in a fenced-in field and I couldn’t get close enough to photograph it except from behind. I used a roll of decades-old Fuji Super G 800 film that I had previously tested to determine that it was […]

Inside the Forbidden City

35mm, China, Olympus Trip 35, Perutz Primera 100 No Comments

This is China’s Forbidden City. It was a perfect day for photography and I was grateful to have a pocketful of film. I was very excited with how these photos turned out. While not as saturated with color as the photos of Tiananmen Square I shot on Ektar, I still got great results from this […]

Kiwi Art Trail

35mm, C-41, Fuji Reala 100, Fujica ST801, New Zealand No Comments

These days, I rarely get the chance to take a photo walk, so I was quite happy when I had some time to myself in Napier to walk along the beach. These painted kiwis are part of the Kiwi Art Trail, a fundraiser to save the kiwi.

Introduced in 2006 as Fuji expanded their Eterna motion picture line, Eterna 250D features exceptionally fine grain thanks to the same Super Nano-Structured Σ (Sigma) Grain Technology that Fuji […]

The Trouble with Scanning Redscale Film

110, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Kodak Ektralite 500, Lomography Lobster Redscale 200, redscale No Comments

The trouble with scanning redscale film is that the scanning software will try to correct for the red and yellow color cast in the images. The resulting images are often washed out and grainy and require manual correction to get the expected redscale look. I use VueScan and Negative Lab Pro to scan and convert […]

This is A’Deane Park in Waipukurau, New Zealand. Sarah and I took our daughter here when we were visiting family over Christmas. It was my first Christmas in the southern hemisphere and after experiencing a summer barbeque on Christmas Day, I don’t think I can ever go back to a snowy Christmas!

Luchadores

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Yashica Ruby 60s 400 No Comments

Every summer, a number of cultural festivals take place in Calgary featuring food stalls and live entertainment. These photos of luchadores were taken at Mexifest, a celebration of Mexico’s cultural heritage. I shot a roll of Yashica Ruby 60s 400 at Mexifest and I have to say, I’m almost always disappointed with films whose selling […]

Film on Film #13

Film on Film, Fuji Instax Mini, instant, Lomography Diana F+, toy camera No Comments

Photos taken at night with CineStill 800T are easy to recognize as the film has no anti-halation layer and therefore lights always have a red halo around them. I haven’t shot CineStill 800T in a while, mostly because it’s not cheap, but also because I rarely shoot at night. If I want or need an […]

Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Camera Reviews, Canada, Kodak Ektar 100, medium (120), square, Zeiss Ikon Signal Nettar 518/16 No Comments

This is my first roll through the Zeiss Ikon Signal Nettar 518/16 and I’m impressed! Until I bought this camera, I didn’t think folding cameras were anything special, but I was wrong. The Signal Nettar features a sharp lens, is easy to use, and was a lot of fun to shoot. The Signal Nettar is […]
