  • Yesterday brought us quite a bit of snow! Beginning overnight, the snow continued to fall right into the wee hours this morning. As you might guess from these (very familiar) photos, these were made after work and – yes – I was picking up cat food and groceries. While I am admittedly getting a little…

  • While it wouldn’t be accurate to say that I don’t make colour photos during the winter, my use of colour film certainly slows down! In spite of the heavy overcast and threat of 12mm worth of “wintry mix” (spoiler: it was just rain by the time it came), I decided that I wanted to make…

  • No, the title isn’t a self-critique: we’re entering a January warm spell! This means snow, sleet, and slush. We’re a bit messy here in Centretown. Still, given how often I’ve complained about this year’s cold, the temperatures that are making the slushy mess possible are more comfortable than the deeper winter chill we’ve had until…

  • Once we left the gallery, we headed down Murray Street toward Khao Thai for some lunch. It’s not entirely often that we know exactly what we want, often standing there sort of buffering with indecision or an maybe even an unwillingness to make the first move on a meal out, but on Saturday we knew…

  • So, contrary to our plans, we did *not* make it Almonte yesterday. Snow began accumulating overnight and did not stop until the following night. Seeing it fall yesterday morning, however magical it was, we quickly grew uncertain whether or not the roads would be alright. Knowing that our rental car would not have winter tires…

  • This past Wednesday was a snowy day, and it didn’t really stop for long. Today was also a snowy one. The virtual whiteout on this blog should be sufficient evidence that getting out to make photos in these conditions is delightful! So that afternoon, once I finished my shift, I decided to go another route…

  • Perhaps – at least for the season – I should rename this site to “Charlotte Makes Snow Photos”. Or maybe *Made* Snow Photos, since these are from a snowy Sunday afternoon a few years ago. I will have some new photos up here soon, but they are snowy photos of (mostly) Bank Street from yesterday…

  • Photos from a roll of snowy photos made on Fuji’s Neopan Acros 100, the first one, long expired. It was also the last roll of film I used in 2022. Looking at the forecast for the next week or so, it’s quite possible that December 2025 will shape up to look a bit like 2022…

  • Especially when it’s earlier in the season, a nice snowfall makes the dullness of Sunday errands stillness of a Sunday morning that much nicer. As soon as the morning light began to show itself, the beautiful snow globe type of now (occasionally giving way to goose feathers) proved to be more than enough motivation to…

  • Our little Saturday adventure came to us rather by accident this week. On Friday, while picking up a few groceries, I decided that I was going to finally bring one of the Nuts for Cheese wedges home for us to try. We hadn’t really planned any sort of meal or snack to have it with,…
