Okay, so maybe the chemistry is fine after all. With my last roll of ECN-2 film a bit of a disappointment, I wasn’t entirely keen to keep going with the kit I had mixed up. After turning its proverbial portrait away from me and thinking about it sporadically over a…

Really, we’re more like a large town (or small city) with a love for all that is suburban. What I really wanted to do was work the film’s name into the title somewhere: Lomochrome Metropolis. As an on-this-day gallery, I mostly remember spending June 2022 excited for our upcoming trip…

Auberdreams? Although I have exposed two rolls this week, it was almost 27°C in the apartment last night. Which means that the chemistry would be 27°C. Which means that, at least for the black-and-white roll, I would be risking overdevelopment and runaway highlights. If nothing else, it motivated us to…

…so it turned out that I wasn’t quite ready on Saturday to stay inside. Once I finished finished lunch, I noticed that my feet got really itchy. A problem for which there is only one source of relief: I needed to get myself outside again. Besides, I was to make…

…home again, home again… 🎶 I wasn’t really feeling in on Saturday, so instead of visiting the Chinatown Night Market this weekend, we set more modest goals. Kathleen was in need of some more tea, so we decided to take a little walk down to the Market to visit the…

I suppose that’s a little more artful a way to say that “I purchased this 24mm lens around Christmas, used it twice, liked it, and hadn’t picked it up since”. On Thursday after work, I chose this, my widest lens, spooled a short roll of FP4+ and headed out for…

This week, I decided to continue on with colour development and expose my last remaining roll of re-spooled cinema film for my work-week photo making. Tuesday’s photos (1-4) were made on the way to the bus for an electrolysis appointment after work, and Wednesday’s (5-12) were on a post-dinner walk…

“You’re all winners to me!” I mean, five years ago today, I remember the weather was lovely. I remember the walk along the river and back up again was nice. I remember being disappointed that we didn’t see a turtle around the pathway. I remember it being kind of neat…

Although I physically work in Ottawa, my place of employment is actually on the Québec side of the river and for most purposes (including taxation), I am employed in that province. Outside of a usually larger tax return (since I reside in Ontario), I also get La Fête nationale du…

There is a good reason why the photos on this roll aren’t very interesting. As my second-ever bulk rolled film, I wanted to confirm whether or not I had done it right. It turns out that I did! Just like colour negative development, slide development, and ECN-2, it turns out…
