Upcoming work for The Artist Project

I shot a bunch of work this summer with the Holga camera, some of which was on the water or just rural Ontario.

This picture is from Lake Magnetawan, the water there had a great amount of pond lillies, by the edge where it starts to be still. We went for a canoe ride and also found these melon shaped plants below the surface of the water, interesting but not necessarily something to photograph.

I have been using a variety of old film in the camera, about the 2003 vintage when professional photographers started dumping film en masse and I would be getting these left over rolls from people who had made the leap to digital. I think this is Kodak 100T, T for colour balanced for tungsten lighting. Everything is super blue to balance out the yellow of indoor lighting. This is yellow orange due to the scanning and I think I love it. 

So I am trying to get a bunch of work ready for The Artist Project which is February 20-23, please try to come by, there will be a few hundred artists of different stripes.

An image from Lake Cecebe

Here is an image I took this summer, still playing around with these negatives.

Chicago 2009

While Toronto kids had no outdoor services due to the strike, Chicagoan kids in this water park were having the time of their lives!

This massive glass monolith had projection screens in-bedded into the glass brick and would display video images of children smiling and eventually "geysering" water onto fellow children...that sounds weird now that I look at it.
