Vivitar UWS - a few more photos


The Best Poutine in Ottawa - well, one of...there are more than one chip truck making the same claim.

Thank goodness for a sunny day!


I was REALLY nervous about the other roll of film that I shot when I was feeling better. Why? Because I used a roll of 200ISO and read that this may not lead to the best result...and phew! They turned out. I shot around Parliament Hill - here a few of the results.

Here is me bundled up on this cold day taking a picture of the eternal flame.

Center block of Parliament Hill

I LOVED this sign - do not even think about parking here...when signs say what people are really thinking!

A few more photos...


Okay, here are a few more photos. Some of these are from when I was home sick but I still like them. I'm always interested in junk out on the street at especially posters so I thought I would do at least one poster shot (above).

Some winter weather!

A different view from the library.

With every new camera I get I ALWAYS take a picture of my dog Lily on the first roll. She doesn't really like having her picture taken any more so she wouldn't let me get that close but I like this photo of her.
I haven't picked up my roll of 200ISO I am definitely nervous that nothing will work out but I hope something does since I went up to Parliament Hill to take the photos - please keep your fingers crossed for me!

First camera photos


So my first roll of film came in - here are a few shots to start with but I will add more as I look at them. I would agree with the Four Corners Dark review that it needs at least 400ISO, I have no expectations at this point for my roll of 200ISO but we will see.
The above photo is the view from the library.

I was walking to meet my husband and I thought the street looked nice so I took this shot as I crossed the street. This is close to Chinatown in Ottawa.

I walk by this house nearly every day on my way to meet my husband. This plastic situation was established before Christmas...not sure what it's about but interesting to look at.

This is a bank turned pawn shop near my work - I like that the Bank of Montreal reliefs are still on the side of the building.
That's it for now but more to come!
