I forced myself to get up early to take shots of the foggy Sault Ste. Marie morning on the RZ67 w/ Portra 800. It'll be a while before I see them because no one in town develops film anymore and I only ever do black and white myself. Might have to invest in some C-41 chemicals.

Did a quick test of my new 45mm extension tube for the RZ67. Gets me quite a bit closer. The left shot is closest I can get with the 110mm f/2.8, while the right is the same lens with the tube.

A really lucky thrift store find tonight, a signed print by Irish photographer Bill Doyle. The quality and detail of the print is just unreal, dated 1956. Doyle died in 2010 but left behind a great legacy and I’m going to have to order some of his photo books now. #filmisnotdead

Even though I had to register on the spot because I recently moved, it was minimal hassle to cast my ballot and I recommend everybody get out and vote if you haven’t already.

Saw a local candidate and their team on my street, so I listened out for a door knock or ringing of the doorbell. Instead I heard my mailbox creak and by the time I found the pamphlet they were gone. I guess they were doing a speed run and not actually looking to talk to anybody.

I paid Canada Post to forward my mail, beginning July 16. Over a month later and I haven’t got a single piece from my old address. Am I just going to get a giant pile of old mail some day? Should I be asking to speak to the manager?

Officers with the Sault Ste. Marie Police Service examine apparent bullet holes left behind at the scene of an incident early Friday in the area of Huron and Cathcart streets. A house and a restaurant each had damage from at least one bullet hole. Kenneth Armstrong/SooToday

2/ I also have some exciting personal projects to announce later, so stay tuned if you’re interested. If you’re only looking for my news writing you can follow
@SooToday
and I might post the odd news story here and there. I won’t be offended if you unfollow me because of this.

1/ Account update: now that I am back in Sault Ste. Marie I am going to take this opportunity to shift the focus of this account from primarily posting my news stories to one that is focused more on my personal interests of photography, photojournalism, film photography, etc...

Three weeks ago my mother reserved a 20-foot moving truck from U-Haul for her moving day, which was today. I bet you can’t guess the twist to this story when they called us last night...
