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.

My 2011 in photos

I realize I'm a bit behind on this, but it's still January so I thought I would still be able to get away with doing a more personal blog post about my relationship with 2011. Suffice to say we had our ups and downs but can still be friends :)


There was lots of travel:

Punta Cana

San Francisco

and of course, home

There were a lot of goodbyes:

And a lot of reunions - I visited Winnipeg for the second time:

observed others engaged in fishing

fired a rifle for the first time (scary!)

demanded road-side stops on the highway for photos

I watched some of my friends get married!

Heather & Anthony

Appreciated a number of Nova Scotia sunsets:

And learned to appreciate the art of breakfast

I moved into a real person apartment, above ground and everything!

and adopted a fuzzy friend:

Gerrard is very tolerant

I invested in a wide angle lens:

I learned how to manually operate my film camera:

I turned some of my friends into models:

Jessica

Janet

Janet

And even turned the camera on myself :/

also, learned a bit about Photoshop

and about flash photography

and finally didn't hide my whole face

And I celebrated a second Christmas on New Year's Eve!

I'm looking forward to 2012 and I hope you are too :)
