I’ve been using some expired 220 portra nc which can’t go on any longer. Time to buy film. I am thinking I might start shooting 220 vc.

In this post…. Clay, Emily, Katherine, Alberta, London, Outside. It was 25 degrees out for some of these shots last saturday and there was some serious wind. Tonight (7 days later) it’s -4.

Actually a gentleman named Derek Vincent purchased the camera on my behalf and shipped it to me. He was extremely helpful and I owe him greatly. Anyhow I just put my first roll through it and am very happy. It was mostly boring photos and as such I will share them here. The rest of the shots are 645 from my bronica. The back broke while I was on a camping trip so I never even finished the roll so I just got it processed now.

Here are the 645 shots.

In other news my friend liz months ago posted a note saying “The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me.”. I was one of those five people and as a result she made me some delicious Jams and I’ve really enjoyed them. But part of the deal was that I would have to do the same thing.

So the first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me. I don’t know what it will be yet and I’m not sure how long it will take but it will get done. Everyone is free to respond I dont need to know you.

Here is a random shot from the summer. Clay (the gentleman in this shot) is moving to Mexico with his girlfriend (my close friend Emily) in a week or so. So here is to you clay!

This is my first digital post in a very long time. I went camping this past labour day weekend with Katherine, Lindsay, Will, Emily, Clay, Alnis, and Brooke. We had a wonderful time. We went up to Koshlong lake which is near Haliburton. We stayed on a fabulous piece of crown land. I put my canoe on my car and we made the trek up north. These shots are all from a digital camera. They are presented from newest to oldest. This first shot is Emily the day before we left. The last shot is when we arrived in the woods in the dark trying to find our way to the camp sight. Will was quite knowledgeable of the area and had camped here many times before so he had marked the site with some rocks at the service road. Anyhow I have included a shot of Lindsay driving in front of my car because I think it’s funny to take digital shots that look somewhat in the style of commercial car ads. This attempt was far from it but it’s still a funny cliche.

I went up to montreal for the Rogers Cup. I had never been to a tennis tournament before and Evan was kind enough to host me. We have a portrait that sums up our weekend nicely.

Some of the other shots are from when clay and emily and I went and hung out with my parents and took their boat out for a spin. More shots of me than usual on that little trip.

I got new batteries for my camera but am still having trouble metering with my 50mm, not sure what the deal is, but I’ve just been metering externally.

I haven’t shot much and summer has been a little boring, but there have also been a lot of good times in the last two months.

We canoed out into some lakes north of Haliburton. It was cold, very cold. They were calling for snow on the sunday that we were there. When I got there I took my camera out of my dry bag and the battery that I had just put into it was dead. So here are a lot of shots with guessed exposures.

It was about 30 degrees centigrade colder than it was today. The spit is really interesting, it’s all man made from half a century worth of industrial garbage. That beach is all bricks and concrete from demolished buildings. I guess I can just quote wikipedia

” The Leslie Street Spit is a man-made headland in Toronto, Canada, extending from the city’s east end in a roughly southwesterly direction into Lake Ontario. It is about 5 km long. The official name of the spit, sometimes used on government maps is the Outer Harbour East Headland.”

There you go, your Toronto geography lesson of the day. It was very surreal being out there though. You’re standing on a giant pile of treasures, and it’s just massive. Shortly after taking these shots we saw a Snowy Owl which was pretty god damned stunning. It’s strange to see such a beautiful animal on a garbage pile.

Anyhow I had intentions of shooting colour here but I forgot the slide for my film back and couldn’t change film. Also the wide angle lens for my camera broke and as a result wasn’t metering so I had to guess these exposures. I’ll have to go back on a nice summer day to capture all the colours of the stones and tiles. My friend Patrick and I just aquired a 4×5 camera that we’re splitting so it might be nice to do 4×5.

I have one shot showing that event. Then I got sick so I had to buy some vitamins and a couldn’t choose which ones to get, so many options! Then Katherine and I hosted an election party. It was very nerdy and political, not overly exciting. We ate cupcakes. Cakes in cup size, so portable. So friday night Adrian came into town and him and terry and myself went to see the sea and cake where John McEntire (my favorite drummer) destroyed the whole planet. I tried to get a shot of him after the show but it was dark and all I had was an 85mm so it’s not exactly in focus. After the show my friend Emily was having a house warming party where I continued to shoot with the 85mm despite it being completely inappropriate.

I also found a very interesting black and white conversion plug in for photoshop made by nikon. It emulates all kinds of different black and white films. I did a few here with the TriX emulator. I have to say I’m pretty impressed. It’s like film but without my dusty apartment getting in the way.

here are some full resolution versions here here and here

Although I don’t think I’ll stop shooting film. I’m looking for one of these if anyone has one.
