sightseeing in nova scotia: personal

Some of my favourite non-travel moments, just for fun.

Images are from Holga 120N, Hasselblad 500 C/M and Nikon FE

sightseeing in nova scotia: five islands & cape chignecto

I was fortunate this summer to be able to visit home for a few weeks (instead of a few days), so we made the most of it by touring around the province as much as possible. All of these images are from Five Islands Provincial Park and Cape Chignecto, and either a Hasselblad 500 C/M, Holga 120N, or Nikon FE on a variety of different films.

I really like making salad.

Adventures in push processing

A small, somewhat incoherent collection from an experimental roll of Ilford HP5+ 400, shot at 1600 and pushed two stops in development. It was a fun experiment -- I feel like I learned a lot about what lighting conditions are optimal for this technique (because many of the shots turned out terribly!). It turns out that overcast, rainy days aren't the best. Also, because I mostly use 400 speed film, it was fun to be able to shoot a lot more things inside during the evening. I'll definitely be trying this out again!

Fishermen's Cove, NS: Round 2 (Fuji Pro 400H)

I took a lot of pictures on our visit here. The first post I made was all digital, taken with my Pentax k-x. These are all from a Nikon FE film camera loaded with Fuji Pro 400H. I'll probably make a third post with some black and white film shots once I get them back! Sorry for the foggy overload (but not really)


p.s. some of the photos were taken with a 28-80mm Makinon lens that had some crazy vignetting towards the 80 range (i.e., that wasn't Photoshop!)
