We were visiting my wife’s sister for Thanksgiving back in 2011 and I went for a really long walk along Lake Ontario (the lake is less than a mile from her house) with my Canonet QL17 loaded with expired Kodak Tri-X B&W film. The battery wasn’t working, so I was guessing at exposures.

This particular frame seems to have been out-of-focus, and the scan itself has blurry and less blurry areas (this was scanned by the business that developed the film for me). On top of that, the contrast was low because the film was expired!

In any case, it ended up being a very moody and impressionistic image, and I thought I’d share it here. I may do a blog post a bit later including some of the other photos I got that day/afternoon…:).
