It’s apparently all in the inversions. With perhaps one exception, my first few rolls processed in T-Max Developer were decidedly …not good. (Including this one.) The rolls would come out super dense – quite overdeveloped. It was only later that it occurred to me to follow the inversion technique on the bottle. 5 seconds every…

Pasta earrings in hand, err, box, we were getting a bit hungry. After learning that Maipai would definitely not be a possibility (the next reservation was available June 1!), we decided that since we were heading home the next morning, that we’d just eat closer to the hotel and turn in early. Which was still…

In spite of the mercurial weather, I ended up making more photos than I had anticipated. A quick stop at our hotel for more film, and we were ready to spend a little time at the Art Gallery of Hamilton! The Helen McNicoll exhibition was particularly lovely. Though more than 70 years apart, many of…

Before we left for vacation (May 10-18), Ottawa was only just settling into that sort of early Spring green. Since it was one of those years where the seasonal switch was to happen all at once, it makes sense. When we returned, the full canopy was on show!

As you might be able to tell from the photos above, we did not make it to see any of the city’s fine waterfalls. You might say that the falls came to us. At least in part. In the form of rain! The walk to the Wentworth Stairs was much longer than anticipated, which as…

Saturday was our last full day in Hamilton and on vacation away and, given this spring’s weather on the whole, it seems fitting that we’d be teased. At least a little. By the weather. Since rain was in the forecast, we planned for a mix of indoor and outdoor things to do. First things first,…

With that morning’s photographic misstep in mind, when I loaded a new roll on that roasty-toasty corner, I double- triple-checked that the camera was properly set for the film speed and that it was on ‘1x’ (normal). Having run out of Ottawa Street, we boarded the Barton bus back to the downtown. Following a leisurely…

The nice weather we experienced on Thursday continued into Friday, so that meant our little trip to Ottawa Street! What brought us to this strip in the Crown Point neighbourhood was, well, fabric stores. Kathleen’s main hobby is sewing (there is a 90% chance on any given day that either one or both of us…

As for dinner? It wasn’t too bad, just a welcome meal at a nearby pub. What was fun was that our waitress asked us about what brought us in and we explained it was a vacation, that we visited previously, and really liked Hamilton and wanted to return. Taken by surprise, she seemed quite excited…
