These are from the Juno Beach Centre in Courseulles-sur-Mer, France. The statue is called Remembrance and Renewal and is a memorial to the Canadian soldiers who stormed Juno Beach on D-Day and fought in World War II.
Villa Lara
I was fortunate enough to spend a night at the Villa Lara Hotel in Bayeux, France. These photos of my room were shot on Kodak Portra 160.
Honfleur Part 2
These are from Honfleur, France. They were shot using Orwo NP7 400 from Labeauratoire. Unfortunately, this film needed more exposure. As you can see, it turned out rather dark and excessively grainy.
Views of Paris
These views of Paris were shot from the top of the Arc de Triomphe during the summer of 2015. [fancy_images width=”648″ height=”429″] [image caption=”#418.

Courseulles-sur-Mer
These were shot in Courseulles-sur-Mer, Normandy, France last summer on my battlefields tour sponsored by the Juno Beach Centre Museum. Courseulles-sur-Mer is beautiful and I took a lot of photos while I was there. The last shot is of the statue entitled Remembrance and Renewal as seen reflected in the glass of the Juno Beach […]
Honfleur
These were all shot with my Canon Canonet QL17 Giii. I love this little camera and had a great time capturing these images in Honfleur, France. I spent only an evening here during my trip to Normandy, but it was awesome. I met a lot of friendly people, drank some amazing Calvados brandy, and generally […]
Juno Beach (Shot with Adox Color Implosion)
These were shot at Juno Beach in Courseulles-sur-Mer, Normandy, France last summer using Adox Color Implosion film. Juno Beach is the codename for the beach that the Canadians stormed on D-Day and it is also home to the Juno Beach Centre, a museum dedicated to those Canadians that fought and lost their lives in WWII. […]
Omaha Beach Cemetery
These were shot during my trip to Normandy, France in August. They are from the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial at Omaha Beach. Omaha Beach saw some of the bloodiest fighting on D-Day and the battle and cemetery are both featured in the movie Saving Private Ryan. These were shot using FPP RetroChrome 160 film […]
Bicycle in Arromanches
I came across this really cool bicycle in Arromanches-les-Bains when I was in France this summer. Arromanches is where the British built a Mulberry harbour after D-Day in World War II. The remnants of the Mulberry harbour can still be seen today. I love rescale film and the red, orange and gold tones you can […]
LomoChrome Turquoise & the Bayeux Cathedral
When I was in France this summer, I took along a roll of Lomography’s LomoChrome Turquoise XR 100-400 35mm film. LomoChrome Turquoise is modelled after Lomography’s LomoChrome Purple film which in turn is modelled after Kodak Aerochrome (this post by The Phoblographer explains it all). LomoChrome Turquoise produces some wild color shifts, but it isn’t […]
Hay Bales at Point 67
I took these photos of hay bales at Point 67 in Normandy, France. Point 67 is an overlook on Verrières Ridge and lies a few kilometres south of Caen. The battle for the Verrières Ridge was both a part of Operation Atlantic and Operation Spring in July 1944 as part of the overall Battle of […]
Pont Neuf Love Locks
I went to France this summer and had the time of my life! These were taken in Paris on the Pont Neuf (new bridge) where it crosses the Île de la Cité. The Pont Neuf is the oldest bridge in Paris. There is a platform there called la Place du Pont Neuf with a statue […]
