Industrial Double Take
This is an accidental double exposure resulting from some strange camera behaviour.
I flew up to Haida Gwaii with the Canon Elan 7N camera, mid-roll, in my Pelican case. I forgot to release the vent and the case, which I bought in 1982 and is not/no longer as robust as modern ones, was sucked in at the sides. And the camera, when I looked, proclaimed a film winding error and was essentially frozen. I had to pop open the back to override the message and rewind the film. So, I (more…)
Small Portraits
This is from my recent trip to Vancouver Island’s west coast with Melinda Green Harvey, visiting from Texas.
My partner and I had a lot of fun showing her around, and doing our own thing while on the tour.
I am very pleased with how the Olympus mjuii handled this tricky situation.
Shown is my partner taking pictures of the small wooden dolls that she carves, and which lead quite public lives on her delightful blog Quimper Hittys.
You can get a sneak preview of many of the scenes that will be (more…)
On the Kwuna II
Two details of the ferry Kwuna taken as we transited Skidegate Channel at the end of last month.
Point No Point Sunset II
This is taken from very close to the same place as Point No Point and Point No Point Sunrise.
Except it was as a larger than usual wave swept over the sand, nearly giving me a soaker.
See others from this visit here.

Grandchild 12
Two different occasions where my granddaughter was caught on one roll of film. She is seen below with her father and a friend. She sure is proud of those running shoes.
These pictures are more from my Week 18 post Keep the Vermin Out at 52Rolls.net, which also includes the colour shots in Drain Yoga, posted a few days ago.
This little point and shoot camera seems to work pretty well for these kinds of shots, though I could do with better film.

My Week 18 of 52 over at 52Rolls.net – click through to see quite a few more photographs
I took these pictures as a result of being so well organised that I arrived at my dentist an hour early for an appointment. There is a mall across the street with a very good book store, so naturally I knew how to kill an hour, especially with a camera on my person.
Today’s shots are from the façade of a major retail chain that tried to make it in Canada, and failed within a couple of years. They bought an old and well established Canadian retailer, redid all their stores and many more spaces besides. But, they could not figure out why Canadians weren’t flocking to yet another American retailer trying to change the face of our commerce at the expense of local businesses, though they are not the first to have this experience. The real shame is the loss of all those jobs, even if poorly paid, all over the country. I expect something will…
