I’ve waxed poetic enough about Bread By Us‘ focaccia that I don’t think I have to say that if we’re in Hintonburg (now Wellington West) for bread, it’s for that. This roll, an *almost* on this day from last year, not only saw us out to this nice neighbourhood to the west of us, but…

It happens every year, but not at the same time and it doesn’t seem all that predictable. That is a desire – no, need – to make photos escapes me. It can happen when everything around seems too samey, when I don’t have a sort of technical goal (i.e. developing slide), when I don’t feel…

Nearing the peak of a recent heatwave, it might be a little curious that this past Saturday’s adventure related to hot beverages. With the benefit of almost-sweaty hindsight, I’m now as confused as you might be! After my regular brow appointment, we headed west toward Preston Street so I could make photos along the way.…

A few frames from a visit we took to the National Gallery while my Mom was visiting, now just over four years ago. I had wanted to make this a true “on this day”, but did not finish the re-scan until this morning. When I got the results back from this roll that I had…

As luck would have it (or was it better process?), the fourth roll developed in my C-41 Eco Kit turned out just as expected! No peach-orange mottling, no clear discolouration, no nothing – just colour negative as I would expect it! I am still reluctant to finish out the remaining four rolls worth of strength…

It is a significant improvement, but not a solution. As you might have seen in two previous posts, I’ve been having trouble with Flic Film’s C-41 “Eco” kit. Chatting back and forth with some kind people online, it seems like this particular kit can be a little fussy with a few oddball emulsions like, *ahem*,…

A few photos from an uneventful workweek. And I believe that the problem I’ve had with the C-41 Eco Kit may actually be a problem with some fussier colour negative films. I developed a roll of Flic Film Aurora 400 this afternoon, which appears entirely fine. CameraLensFilmDeveloperScannerLocationDate(s)Filing Pentax K2SMC Pentax-A 50mm f/1.7Flic Film Elektra 100Flic…

While still quite warm (and still getting over some mystery bug I may have shared), yesterday was a lovely day to be out an about. Kathleen and I decided to pay a visit a Queer Market at the Next Door Event Space at the edge of Hintonburg. After seemingly everywhere else having had their Pride…

While FP4+ is fine in HC-110, I think when I started developing it in D-96, I found my favourite pairing.
