Very nice work. Love the ongoing series your doing with the Canadian Leica & Lenses & how you have evolved your gear over time. Keep it coming Ko.

Thank you, Mr. Hill!
Here is the collection of pictures taken by all of my three Canadian Leicas, M lenses and FED-2 with J-3 (first).



About Ontario.

Film was Kentmere 100 and 400. All except first one are 5x7 prints on Ilfospeed #2 and 3 RC single grade Ilford paper.

M4-2 and Summarit-M 35 2.5. 8x10 print.

Summer in South Ontario is hot, stinky and short. To operate swimming pool here it costs up to 5K per season. We don't have one at home...

This is an awesome image.

Thanks! I have it framed and on the wall.

They say it is going to be +27 C tomorrow. I'm sick of it...
This one was taken on +40 C day on Queen Street W. Toronto. I walked by them, returned and took one I need.

Wonderful series. I just picked up 10 rolls of Kentmere 100. Love the look you get from it. I think this will be a suitable replacement to Kodak Plus X for me. What are you developing it with if I may ask? I have HC-110 & D-76.

 

[Ko.Fe.]

Thank you!
The Kentmere 100 is ISO 100 film I use most. I'm using only HC-110 for all films.
hcB in 18-20C for 8 minutes. I'm not very precise.

Your doing a fantastic job Kostya. Good to see times for Kentmere on the Massive Dev. Chart. When I first started to by Kentmere 400 a few years back I couldn't find any info. You & Pesphoto (rff member) are the only two I can recall who shoots it.

Thank you, Greg! I order it from BH and it isn't very big difference from HP5+, which is really good one. For daylight street photography at 400 Kentmere is good enough. I only need HP5+ for ISO 1600 now.

M4-P and Elmarit-M 28 2.8 III.

28mm is difficult for me. I have to get very close and then it is hard to frame it...

Pinhole cap on M4-2. Handheld. 8x10 FB print.

Kostyra, really impressive and consistent series. Any thoughts of producing a book?

M3 ELC, J-3, RPX400 and old Agfa RC 8x10 paper. Taken on this November at University street in Toronto.


I don't know about the book, but I do some writings to get it off from my head.
This one from today post on FB:

In Canada we came in 2003 it was the Bay and Zellers owned and operated by Canadians. Now Zellers is gone, the Bay was sold to Americans and Ontario teachers calling it PA day because this Friday is Black in Canada. Last year, they say, local sales on BF went over of amount of purchases on BD. If we became USA outskirts with Walmart as the general store and with USA local news as something major for Canadian media, it is time to abolish meaningless Civic Day holiday, move it to Remembrance Day and have Thanksgiving united in America! Happy Thanksgiving, to US and all!
