5 Frames … Working with C-41 film during my Frugal Film Project (Konica VX 400 and a Canon AE-1 Program)
It goes without saying that this past year has been a challenging one in more ways than one thanks to the pandemic and its related restrictions. Nevertheless, it has also been a year where innovation and discovery have taken place – at least for me. I signed up this year for the Frugal Film Project […]

5 Frames… Starting at Ushuaia’s Beagle Channel on ILFORD HP5 PLUS (35mm Format / EI 400 / Leica M2 + Leica Summaron 35mm f/2.8)
In October 2019, I traveled to Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, which is the southernmost city of Argentina. These pictures were made on the last day of my trip, during a boat tour through the Beagle channel and a walk on the Bridges Island. It was cloudy that morning and the sky didn`t seem to open […]
For new black and white film, say the secret codeword: “Kosmo Foto Agent Shadow”…but is it really a film noir film?
London-based Kosmo Foto recently announced their Kickstarter for a new film stock: Agent Shadow, a 35mm ISO 400 black and white panchromatic film that can be rated to at least EI 3200. The film is penciled in for a September 2021 release and I was lucky enough to be given a couple of rolls to […]
5 Frames… Around lakes Como and Lugano on expired ILFORD Delta 3200 Professional (120 Format / EI 1000 / Hasselblad 500 C/M + Hasselblad Distagon C T* 50mm f/4)
When you rummage inside your old camera bag and find an unexposed roll of ILFORD Delta 3200 Professional, the urge to try to expose and develop it despite the fact that the expiration date says something like ’12 years before today’, well it comes to you, and how. …and if in the cellar you also […]
My first roll… Kodak T-MAX 400 with a Nikon FE + Nikon Series E 50mm f/1.8 lens
I started taking photos in 2020 as a hobby, the idea of photography excited me as it was a way to see the city and my Vancouver neighbourhood through a different lens. Growing up my mom loved photography and had always had a Nikon FE around. As a child, I loved holding the camera, turning […]

5 Frames… Of my 22nd birthday at the Uetliberg on Fujifilm FUJICOLOR Industrial 100 film (35mm Format / EI 100 / Pentax MX + Asahi Pentax SMC 50mm f/1.7)
These 5 photographs were taken on my birthday this year on a Pentax MX with an Asahi Pentax SMC 50mm f/1.7 lens. I shot the photos on Fujifilm Industrial 100. I had been saving the last roll of this film that I had for a special occasion since this is one of my favourite film […]
Taking Stock: A shootout with 3 very different color films highlights creative possibilities – Kodak Portra, Fuji C200 and Fuji Velvia 100
I recently acquired a Rollei 35 after dreaming about shooting with this ultra-compact camera and its legendarily sharp Carl Zeiss lens for many years. I was able to score a great deal on a lightly used “Made in Germany” variant at my local camera shop by trading in an old Canon A1 and 50mm lens […]
5 Frames… Of my return to black and white film photography on Kodak T-MAX 100 (35mm Format / EI 100 / Nikon N90 + NIKKOR 80-200mm f/4.0)
I am located in La Ceja, a municipality 40 km from Medellín, Colombia’s second city in South America. For my return to the chemical process of black and white film photography, I dusted off my old Nikon N90 camera, which I used commercially in combination with the Nikon F4 in the last decade of the […]
5 Frames… At Bull Island on Kodak T-MAX 100 and my Mamiya 6 (120 Format / EI 100 / Mamiya 75mm / f3.5)
The lockdown has been a big lesson for me, in that I have come to appreciate the little things in life. Photography is my hobby (some would say obsession) and it takes me to another world, away from the normal every day. I enjoy the gear, the chemicals, and more recently, darkroom printing. I am […]

My first roll… In a Mamiya 7 on Shanghai GP3 100 (120 Format / EI 100 / Mamiya 80mm f/4 lens)
This roll is the peak moment of my path to purchasing the camera I was dreaming about for a long time – the Mamiya 7. And also my entry to medium format film. My journey, from deciding to buy this camera, to actually buying the notoriously expensive Mamiya rangefinder, was not easy. I sold both […]

5 Frames… Of Reno, the Biggest Little City in the World on Kodak Portra 400 (120 Format / EI 400 / Zenza Bronica ETRSi + Zenzanon EII 75mm f/2.8)
It was a sunny but cold day in November 2020. Coronavirus was in full swing, but I decided to head up from Las Vegas to Reno for a week to get away from the job search which had characterized my existence for the previous few months and see my brother. On my agenda for the […]
The best of #FP4Party April 2021
When the #FP4Party team assembled in Feb 2021, it was the first time we’d spoken as a group since May 20th, 2020. I didn’t think about that until we landed on the date for Day 1 of “post week”, the date when the party would be kicking off for real: April 19th 2021. We had […]
