My first film camera was a camera of the time. I do not recall it in the least. What I do recall is that I shot an entire roll of film featuring groundhogs at Fort Whyte Alive. My parents developed my film, they were not impressed that I wasted an entire roll on the fury […]

With this roll I took two walks. One was through the North End, where I now live in Winnipeg. The North End gets a bad reputation, but is historically one of the more interesting parts of Winnipeg proper before all the cities and municipalities amalgamated into the Winnipeg we know today in the 1,1970’s. A […]

This roll captured a few images of the past in more than the usual way. Old tall ships were anchored at the dock, while a piece of the Berlin Wall reminded us of times when leaders fail their people. -KMSB

A few images from Kejimkujik National Park in Nova Scotia. These were taken on the Gold Mine hiking trail. We found no gold, but, in an attempt to get a better picture, I may have stepped into an ant’s nest. -KMSB

Oddly, this roll of film is roll 006 but I know it is one of two rolls of film that I bought first. It just happens that between my first roll of colour film (roll 001 of course) and this one, a friend out east lent me black and white film and showed me how […]

Only a few images from this roll. They explore mechanical structures and a few glimpses of natures. -KMSB

This roll of 35mm was taken when a travelling show came to the Exhibition Grounds just outside Winnipeg – Lovingly called the Winnipeg-Ex … like so many of my ex-partners … given that they all lived in Winnipeg of course. On that note, onto the photos. -KMSB

Now that I have caught up on my 120format film, I have taken the time to scan in the film I took using a Zeiss Ikon Contessa that I picked up when I first decided to get back into film a year or so ago. The images I took with this beautiful rangefinder were more […]

I had issues loading my film again in the C3. The back didn’t close properly and the counter reset itself after only two images. I thought I had figured out how far to turn the crank per image, but it turns out I was way off. I took notes for six images, but in reality, […]

With the snow settling in we took a trip to Oak Hammock Marsh. Not only was it a lovely day for a walk, but we took some lovely pictures. I am finding that I still struggle with thinking in black and find my images lack good contrast, geometry, or deep shadows. Thankfully, the Marsh isn’t […]
