Foggy Morning in Old East on Flickr.

London, Ontario
Went to meet Jo-Anne for an interview/walk for my documentary and was taken aback at how neat this area looks in the morning (especially when it’s foggy out!)
Took my Mamiya so I got some film shots too, but who knows when those will be developed.
[Man oh man I can’t wait until I have my Nikon back.. Just need the $…]

The old Winnipeg airport terminal, which has begun to be torn down. (I’m pretty sure this area is all gone now.)

“Steven Robyn stands in a downtown back lot - the very back lot where a depression era warehouse once stood. It was leveled earlier in the spring.”
One of my favourite shots of Steve. He thought I should have cropped it closer to his head, but I told him he was an idiot. (It’s ok, we do it to each other all the time.)
A few months ago my Dad bought this at a garage sale for $3. It’s an old Kodak Signet 35, which came into production in the 1950s. At first I thought it didn’t work. The shutter didn’t press down, you couldn’t see through the viewfinder, it just seemed more like a neat old paperweight to be completely honest.
Today however I figured I would check it out again. Maybe I missed something. Sure enough I did. After turning the rewind knob a few times, I popped open the back to find an old roll of Kodachrome 25 (ASA 25) sitting in it.
I don’t know how old the roll is (older than 2001, which is when Kodak stopped making Kodachrome 25), or how long it’s been sitting in there, but it was at the end of the roll in the camera, so if anything, there are pictures on it.
Until I can get it developed (which I don’t think I can, there aren’t any Kodachrome labs anymore) I can only guess as to what could be on it..

Another old photo of mine that I recently edited.

Made this little time lapse video in 2009 — finally got around to putting it on YouTube. It’s nothing special. Just a little video.
It turned out really dark on YouTube.
Here is what the video actually looks like at 0:05 (brightness wise):
