Last year, I participated in a ‘hidden project. Usually, when I do a photography project, I have regular blog posts and a Flickr album all related to it. But not this one; this was another group project called 12 Months On Film<\/a>; it ran on Instagram and was moderated by the Film Shooters Collective. The purpose was to get cameras off shelves, film out of fridges and enjoy photography. The guidelines were simple, shoot a different camera each month, you could use different film stocks, developers or all the same, but the camera had to be different each month. A rather nice change from the Frugal Film Project that stuck to inexpensive cameras and films and the same each month. Now, some of these images have popped up on my blog already last year, either as part of a bigger post or a dedicated post. I set some personal guidelines that the rolls used for the project could not be a part of a camera, film, or lens review. Also, it could not be a part of the Frugal Film Project.<\/p>\n

January – St. Mary’s<\/strong>
\nJanuary turned out pretty rough, work had a hard start for both Heather and I and the weather did not help. 2024 seemed to start the same as 2023, cold, wet, dull and no real snow. So we got in the car and headed out to St. Mary’s, Ontario. This little hidden gem is near Stratford and is often overshadowed by it, which also makes it a lot quieter. It also got us out of the house on a semi-nice day. I packed along my Nikon FE2 and the 24mm lens loaded up with Ilford HP5+. Developing the film in Adox HR-DEV wasn’t the best idea, but it can be fun to try out different combinations even if to find out you aren’t a fan.<\/p>\n
