Photos!

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.

These are photos from my Christmas, Christmas vacation with my father visiting my brother in Fernie, and new years. They are in no particular order. It’s winter and I’ve been shooting nothing. When it gets warmer there are a few series I’ll be shooting and maybe I’ll post the random snapshot.

Hello all. 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.

a couple weeks ago Katherine and I went to port perry for the day to have lunch/see the taj mahal (mini/catholic) in uxbridge. When we got to port perry there were lots of people out on the ice. This weekend I was out kitesnowboarding in keswick but forgot my camera oh well.

I’m getting more images back from this silly half format camera by the day. I thought that I broke the usb port on my scanner, so I took the whole thing apart. Have you ever taken a film scanner apart before? It’s a complex machine, full of whirly’s and wizzy’s lots or wire and ribbons, circuits the like, it takes a lot of taking apart to get to the board with the usb port soldered to it. Anyhow I inspected the board and it looked fine. All the solder was intact. Now comes the hard part putting everything back together. Luckily when I was done there were no screws left. But the problem didn’t lay in the scanner at all but the stupid nikon software. Anyhow if anyone needs instructions for disassembling a nikon cool scan V let me know, I can walk you through it, right to the the part at the end when you realize you’ve risked destroying your precious scanner for nothing.

In other news Katherine and I just bought a 14 year old BMW wagon. It’s like driving a German tank I’m hoping to get many good ski road trips in this winter.

Oh right here is the nonsense gallery!

So Halloween was a couple weeks ago. 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.

A whole bunch of images from the last few weeks. Nothing special, just hanging out in the city.

So summer is over. Wow that was quick. I took a few photos this summer. I also moved during the middle of the summer which took a lot of my time and energy but the rest of the time was pretty good. So I processed some film this week. The colour stuff is from one of those point and shoot one time use waterproof cameras, I had never used one before, it wasn’t bad, obviously not a real camera, but at least it’s film. Anyhow those are from camping for Stephs birthday. There are shots from my families cottage Katherine and I out on the boat with my mom and dad. There is Nicks house warming party/Clays last night in town. There’s beasley and I finding a TV. I guess that’s it! Nothing special, just random stuff. I also think that my contax camera is leaking light. Might be time to bite the bullet and get one of those leica m6′s.

Weddings (Bee Hives)

I finally managed to get through the hundreds of photos from Alnis and Brooke’s wedding. I had never shot a wedding before so I was pretty nervous to be honest. It’s a lot of pressure and I usually dont work well under that kind of pressure. I guess weddings have a stigma and a style that kind of conflicts with my own. My biggest conflict was taking the photos I wanted to take without ruining the event as an experience for others by getting in the way. It’s a wedding not a photoshoot. I was able to wittle them down to four hundred and something images, not all of them are great but I tried to include shots that I didn’t like too cause you know, memories… Anyhow the gallery has some pre and post wedding stuff from home. Just haninging out with Katherine mostly. Our new place is coming together nicely, I built some massive shelves that I’m pretty proud of. Once it’s all done and set up maybe I’ll take some photos. This idea just occured to me now as I write this, shows how focused my mind is. Anyhow click on the image to check out the gallery.
