The End.

Every end is a beginning.

The End

 

“I’m writing you, to catch you up on places I’ve been

And you held this letter
Probably got excited
But there’s nothing else inside it

Didn’t have a camera by my side this time
Hoping I would see the world through both my eyes
Maybe I will tell you all about it
When I’m in the mood to lose my way with words.”

 

—John Mayer, 3 x 5.

This is a test shot using my recently acquired used Mamiya tilt/shift accessory on Fuji instant (“Polaroid”) film.

1/25 sec, ISO 640, f/1.4.

Despite this being a hand-held image at a reasonably slow shutter speed, the in-focus areas readily display the “crisp” rendering we get from CCD sensors.

The colours are remarkable too, considering this was photographed under incandescent light.

Yearning for the Frozen Touch.

Inspiration, iPhone, Life's Little Moments, Print

This was taken the day leading up to the evening before our power was restored, following the infamous Toronto Ice Storm.

We were outside, chipping away at the ice in front of our house, and the sun had finally made an appearance that day.

It was late afternoon and the light was fantastic.

We had no idea how the night would go for us, as the temperature inside our house was almost as low as outside.

But amidst the struggle and fear, there was beauty to be found.

It’s always the case.

I have to remind myself of that constantly.
