Walking Down Yonge To Davisville

Image
 I walked down to Davisville Station to catch the subway to Union Station on the way home Sunday. Yonge St. between Eglington and the Kay Gardiner Beltline Trail is undergoing a lot of change with redevelopment, sadly the streetscape is going to lose the neighbourhood appeal over time.   Camera: Nikkormat FTn, Nikkor Pre Ai lenses.  Film: Ilford HP5 400, Ilfotec HC 1+31.

 Early March snow storms aren't unheard of, but in my case it had to hit on a Friday, my travel day to Jo-Anne's for the weekend. I was lucky the storm hit afer dinner, we went out for pizza and the snow started on the way back to her place. Things got really interesting with a winter thunderstorm or thunder snow over the course of the evening. All in all we got 30cm/12 inches of snow, wet fluffy snow. Saturday morning the skies cleared and Jo-Anne and I went for a walk around the neighbourhood which became a winter wonderland.  With this project, a yellow filter stays on the Nikkor H 50 f2 lens and on sunny mornings like we had, the results are obviously great. Kentmere is a great bang for your buck black and white film and I plan to buy more once this year is done.  Camera: Nikkormat FTn, Nikkor H 50 F2 lens.  Film: Kentmere 400, Ilfotec HC 1+31.
