The Little One

Remember #FilmFriday? Yeah, me neither

Anyway – here’s a frame of the youngster on Portra 400. A little bit of cuteness to get your weekend started.

Peyto Lake

#FilmFriday is back today with an image I shot of Peyto Lake in Banff National Park.

I love the faded look of this shot – it makes me feel like I’ve stepped back in time.

Equipment:
– Mamiya 645 1000s
– Mamiya Sekor C 80mm f/2.8
– Kodak Portra 400

The Way I Saw It: 3

Film photography has been quite the adventure for me over the past few months. What started out as an experiment with a Holga 135 has turned into to a bit of an obsession. There are now 4 film cameras in my arsenal, and a small section of my fridge is dedicated to housing film. Crazy.

Enjoy the weekend, everyone!

Inside the Crater

So far, my #FilmFriday photos have all been shot with my Holga 135 – today, I’m switching things up a bit. Before I left for Hawaii, I asked my dad if I could borrow his old Canon FT-b and 50mm 1.4 FD mount lens. He gladly obliged (since it was collecting dust anyway), so I added that old beast to my bag that was already stretched full with gear. I rattled off three rolls of film with the old Canon, and was mostly pleased with the way they turned out.

What you see below is a homemade film panorama/triptych that I shot while in the Haleakala crater. The path you see is called Sliding Sands Trail and it will take you from the mouth of the crater all the way to the bottom if you’ve got the legs. I had been up since 3am to shoot sunrise from the top of the crater that morning, so I only made it partway down the trail – but it was an amazing experience. Once inside the crater, you can easily forget that you’re even on earth. The dry, rocky landscape is like nothing I’ve ever seen and I’m glad I was able to experience it.

Equipment:
– Canon FT-b Film SLR
– Canon 50mm 1.4 FD Mount
– Fujifilm Superia 200

The Badlands 2

For today’s #FilmFriday, I thought I’d post another shot from my trip to Drumheller a few weeks ago. I think these cracked hills and valleys are the perfect subject for my Holga…the colours come out great and you get that real sense of nostalgia in the photograph.

Gone Fishin’

I’m not a fisherman, but I can definitely see the appeal of it. People always look so at peace when fishing, like nothing else in the world matters at that moment. I guess it’s kinda like how I feel when I’m off on my own shooting…completely absorbed in the moment and the craft, just enjoying life. Have a great weekend, everyone. #FilmFriday

Mountain Colours

I realize I’ve been loading the blog with images from Lake Minnewanka this week, but I just couldn’t resist posting this shot for #FilmFriday. While I was taking some long exposures, I snapped a few shots with the Holga, and this is by far the best. I just can’t get enough of that amazing light on the mountainside.

Our Tower

Heath OFee — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 13:10:10 +0000

Time for the 3rd installment of #FilmFriday here on the blog. Today, the first urban shot I’ve posted from my Holga.

For anyone who lives in or has visited Calgary, this should be a familiar sight. For those of you who have never been to my hometown, this is a view from below the Calgary Tower, the most recognizable piece of architecture in the city. While it may not be as tall or impressive as the CN Tower in Toronto or the Space Needle in Seattle, it’s our tower, and we’re proud of it.

Retro Portrait

Wow…is it already Friday again? This week has absolutely flown by, and I can’t believe it’s already time to post another shot in my #FilmFriday series!

Today I’m sharing the first portrait I attempted with my Holga…and what better subject than the coolest little dude on the planet: my oldest nephew! I thought he looked pretty rad with that had and those shades, so I had to capture him in all his glory

Power

Alright. Week 2 of Film Friday is here! As I mentioned last week, the photos I post here on Fridays are unedited negative scans, so what you see is straight out of my Holga.

Simple composition with a simple camera.
