Haida Gwaii on Slide Film

My week 22 entry for the 52 Rolls project is most of a roll of slide film shot on Haida Gwaii a few weeks ago. I love the colours rendered by this film.

A few weeks ago I had a business trip to Haida Gwaii (known by the settler populations for a decades as the Queen Charlotte Islands, permanently renamed to Haida Gwaii a few years ago); this is the roll of film I shot during that trip. Today’s post is my 22nd entry in the 52 Rolls project and once again is via the Canon Elan 7N, 50/1.4 and 16-35/2.8 lenses. The film was Fujichrome Provia 400F that I bought new either in 2004 or 2002. I sure do love the colours from this film, too bad it is so expensive. For some reason the Epson V700 scanner puts a black border around strips of slide film: perhaps it was expecting mounted slides? In any case, I have left the borders, which means not straightening horizons and so on.

Haida Gwaii is one of my favourite places, a place where I have been many times for…

Looking Up III

Still looking up in this derelict house with Melinda Green Harvey.

There were a few light fixtures left.

And some molding along the seams which slowly is to become a theme in this upwards mini-series.

Since the wall cladding was removed from most of the rooms, I can only guess that they had this molding too.

Double Trouble

This post has most of the accidental double exposures I made via ignorance of my camera’s symbols. This is the same roll of film as a couple of my recent burntembers posts, including the other one posted today.

Week 21 is brought to you through a Canon Elan 7N, 50/1.4 lens, Fuji Superia 200 and a large dose of operator error. My granddaughter is actually no trouble at all, so doubles of her are just fine/ The title is nostalgic of my childhood in the 1960s – there was a cartoon by this name, or a character, or something (and there have been many since which makes an internet search more complicated than I have patience for). The images in these double exposures were made at least two weeks apart. I have already posted one from this roll on my blog here, and today I post another (my favourite) at the same time as this post is published. If you want to see it, then click on this link.

I find the above image to be quite extraordinary considering it was unintentional and also taken at…

Rectangles Doubled

This is an accidental double exposure resulting from operator error which I explain in today’s other post with the rest of this roll of film over at 52Rolls.net.

This is my favourite from this roll of double exposures, though the one that I lead with on today’s 52 Rolls post is a close second, as is one other I posted from this a few posts ago called Industrial Double Take.

I can’t decide if I like the black and white version (more…)
