 Sometimes I revisit a photo walk route and do it again sort of, solo. I wanted to come back to Trinity Bellwoods and shoot again on colour film, in this case Pro Image 100 from Kodak Alaris. In hindsight, I should have run with one of my Nikon F3/T's but and done a back to back with Eastman Kodak's Kodacolor 100, instead, I went with my chrome Leicaflex SL2, of course I left home without realizing I had my 28 F2.8 Elmarit and 135 F2.8 Elmarit but in the end the camera had a 2 Cam 35 F2.8 Elmarit instead of a 50 F2 Summicron.
