Chinese drummers on Canada Day 2023 in Calgary

These photos are from Canada Day 2023. I was walking by City Hall when I spotted this Lion Dance about to take place, so I joined the crowd. I shot these photos on Fuji Eterna Vivid 160T, a discontinued motion picture film that I wrote a review about last year. I really like this film […]

Calgary Farmyard

Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Fuji GS645S Professional, half-frame, Kodak Portra 160 VC, medium (120) No Comments

These are from a family outing to the Calgary Farmyard. It was a day of mixed blessings. These photos (shot with my Fuji GS645S) turned out nicely, but I discovered that my newly acquired Olympus XA2 was broken.

From the Past #11: Seabird Island 1992

35mm, BC, Canada, From the Past, Fuji Super HG 400, Point & Shoot No Comments

In July 1992, my friends and I headed back to Seabird Island for another music festival and camping. What had been called the Stein Valley ‘Voices for the Wilderness’ Festival in 1991, was renamed the ‘Earth Voice Festival’. The festival line-up featured many of the biggest bands in Canada at the time: Barenaked Ladies, Blue […]

Horses #2

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Canada, Kodak Gold Ultra 400, Olympus XA2 No Comments

I photographed these horses on expired Kodak Gold Ultra 400, which is just an earlier version of UltraMax 400. Kodak’s 8th generation 400 ISO film in the “Gold” line was marketed as Kodak Max Versatility 400 in North America, Gold Ultra 400 in Europe, and Ultra 400 in Latin America. Current UltraMax 400 film is […]

Carifest Parade

35mm, Alberta, C-41, Calgary, Canada, Canon Rebel 2000, Perutz Primera 100 No Comments

I took these parade photos a few years ago at Carifest, a three-day festival celebrating Caribbean culture in Calgary. The photos have a slightly warm tone to them because I had just finished shooting a roll of tungsten-balanced film (Kodak Vision3 200T) and forgot to remove the 85B filter from the lens when I loaded […]

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 Farmyard. 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 best shot at […]

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 […]

Luchadores

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 […]
