In the interest of keeping a neat photography thread alive, here's a few I took recently...

Canadian Helicopter in Harrington Harbour... Was taken around sunset, so the light is different. And wish the tail wasn't cut off!

I have for sale a canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS lens. Brand new, box never opened. Was asking $300, but would take $275. Shipping included within Canada or pickup near YWG. Great for airplane shots. I already have one, so I'm selling this one. Send me a PM if interested.
Item sold.

Here's a couple sample pictures anyway:

My Dad gave me his Pentax K1000 and I got the itch to shoot some film again.

What do you guys think? I love the grain, but the blemishes and scratches make me sad :(

I like 92750003, niss, the red is great. Shooting film is great, I should try it again. My film camera is just gathering dust these days, it's becoming a lost art!

K1000.... as in a pentax K1000? I learned everything I know about photography on one of those cameras! Absolutely loved them. I'm a little envious

Hey Niss, what film are you shooting with in the Pentax? I've got some fuji 200 and for B&W I've got some ilford delta 400.. which so far has been fantastic. I am sans scanner at the moment or I'd post some up. Had to fix a light leak on my AE-1.. but now she's shootin' sharp again ;)

Also have some new gear showing up this week! I've seriously been lacking in the photo department as of late. Time to remedy that. Wheres STL these days too? Keep posting guys and gals! Love seeing what everyone else is up to. Doesnt matter where, what its of or what you're shootin' with. Show it off :)

For my colours I have been using Blacks (Fuji) 400, and for my B&W I have been using Kodak Tmax and Ilford HS5 IIRC.

Some B&W photos (even airplanes!)

^ I should have backed up and gotten the whole cowl in frame, but it was a static display and I think if I did I would have gotten people or some other crap in the way.

For these I had to send them out to get processed. Does anyone have a developer tank, reel, etc they want to sell to a fellow shutterbug/aviator real cheap? I'll trade you a whole case of KD.

Nice work buddy. Just a heads up, but Ilford makes a product (XP2) thats B&W and can be developed in the standard (read local colour) machines and processes. I picked some up out west from London Drugs and Shot two rolls.. Loved the way they turned out. When I get my scanner back I'll pop a couple of them up. In the interim.. I was playing with one of my most favorite lenses the other night...

Can anyone guess what it is? Without cheating and snagging the exif data?

Some kind of macro lens? Hard to say without knowing what camera you carry! ;)

Here are a few I took recently...

On a walk with my dog! I like the motion in this one, too bad I was kind of facing the sun and was hard to get more definition in the dog...

At a Sigur Rós gig in Toronto, I like the light on the drummer, creating a silhouette, wish the singer in the red spotlight was a bit clearer.

A bakeapple, or cloudberry, delicious little fruit. Was rainy and did my best at a macro shot with my point and shoot camera. Anyone ever taste it?

Yes! A coworker made some delicous cloudberry jam last year and it didn't last very long!
