\nWho needs to travel to Kingston, Jamaica when you can easily drive to Kingston, Ontario? \u00a0On the way to Kingston, why not stop in Napanee? \u00a0Napanee is so named for the unusual practice of its residents, who kneel while sleeping, which incidentally is not the same as sleeping while kneeling. \u00a0Napanee is full of pastoral views, such as this parking lot amusement park, seen here via an EHO stereo box camera. \u00a0The Altissa-EHO Stereo box camera was manufactured in the ’30s and has no provision for focusing. \u00a0It has a choice of two Waterhouse f stops – f11 and f22. \u00a0This image was shot using the EHO’s original single shutter speed of (I believe) 1\/30th of a second. \u00a0The camera has visited a technician in the interim and has had its spring tensioned so that now it is capable of firing its shutter somewhere between 1\/60th – 1\/100th of a second!! \u00a0Captured on expired Velvia 50 and home-processed with a CPP2 Jobo unit.<\/p>\n

\nMeet Lorrie and Ray Dillard. \u00a0They reside in Barrie, Ontario, which is very far North of anything and above the permafrost line. \u00a0Lorrie and Ray run a successful snow-harvesting business, selling their surplus snow to countries around the world that won’t or are unable to grow their own snow. \u00a0The snow is shipped out via husky-powered sled in small individual manila bubble pack envelopes twice daily. \u00a0Lorrie and Ray hired Ethel Merman to sing their social media jingle; “Their Snow Business! Like ‘Snow Business’!” \u00a0This image is from a test roll I shot to determine if Rollei Superpan 200 could be reverse-processed in the sometimes-available Foma reversal processing kit. \u00a0Captured with Sam Smith’s conjoined AGFA Isolettes (the “Samulette”) on the aforementioned Rollei Superpan 200, and home-processed with a CPP2 Jobo unit.<\/p>\n

\nPeople not your thing? How about taking a road trip to Cooper’s Falls, Ontario? \u00a0This here gas pump is one of the most photographed entities in an almost-ghost town with not that many entities in it. \u00a0Approximately 14 houses in the area are still inhabited, and the waterfall after which this semi-ghost town is named cannot really be seen (or photographed) without trespassing, as it is situated on private property. \u00a0The title of this image is of the crossword puzzle question type, and by request, I am not supplying the crossword puzzle answer here. \u00a0Captured with an as-fine-tuned-as-is-possible-with-a-Soviet-camera Sputnik cobbled together of donated parts, on expired Provia 100F and home processed with a CPP2 Jobo unit.<\/p>\n

\nEvery year, Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day falls on the last Sunday in April. It is an excuse for my daughter and I to spend a day together photographing various locations in Ontario using pinhole cameras. I will usually pack a “lensed” camera in addition to my pinhole camera(s). On WPPD 2019 we visited artist Peter Camani’s residence which hosts his grand scale outdoor art exhibition. There are various shapes of cast concrete screaming heads situated throughout his 310-acre property near Burk’s Falls, Ontario, each sculpture being in the 15-20 foot tall range. On this occasion I had packed my Hasselblad SWC, and I can’t remember if I was consciously trying to capture a stereo cha-cha image or not. In any case, I found an uncut roll of film with three pairs of images that looked like they might work as stereo pairs. Despite some anomalies between the left and right chips, my brain can fuse these images into a stereo image. As John Thurston likes to say, “your mileage may vary”. Hasselblad SWC, yellow or orange drop-in filter, expired Kodak Aerochrome film, home processed with a Jobo CPP2 unit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
