Recently I purchased a Fuji Instax 200 camera with some of their instant film to boot. It has been the go-to camera rather than my beloved K20D. Ergonomically the camera is a disaster, but this seemingly water-proof camera only has 4 buttons!
This is Jane’s Hippie-van, it was an adventure just trying to get across the city without catching on fire, running out of gas, or rolling over!
I love the imperfections of the instant films, each expired shot has its own color cast and antique feel to it.
Switching gear to some Hong Kong photos this week. Let’s go for some evening exercise on the roof!
Taken with a Pentacon Six Flektogon 50mm with a P6 to K-mount shift adapter.
We have returned to Bon Echo again. This time we also had the same lovely weather, fall colors, and a bunch of loud mouthed friends.
A day-long route looping from Mazinaw through Kishebus Lake.
A brutal 1.5km portage carrying 75lb canoes.
Looking up at the canopy.
The vibrant colors under the sun.
It was my first time seeing an owl. We also watched a raccoon family swim across the lake.
Our super fortress that navigated around a narrow S-bend. My canoe almost flipped!
Aaron’s idea of adventure, the Gaping Hole, literally a hole in the cliff.
The view from the Gaping Hole.
Long story…involving Rishi flipping a canoe with all the camera stuff in it. Luckily he got out safely and the gear didn’t get damaged!
Hanging out at the lookout point.
Freshwater flamingos. :D
In light of the recent National celebrations, I want to post more photos of the China from my last trip. I was rather busy with work so didn’t have a chance to explore any new areas. Nevertheless, it is always interesting to see the difference between China and North America lifestyles.
No medals, no sponsors.
Lunch time at the factory.
– Step 1, find you own bicycle
– Step 2, untangle bicycle
– Step 3, line up to get out of the gates
The large boats are always digging up sediment from the riverbed, maybe they are used to prevent the water level from declining.
Greatest packaging ever! I was tempted to steal it from the hotel room…
