the lost roll...

we found it.

and because we think these are just plain cool, we thought we'd show you the ship again. little editing was done on these (just enough to take out that piece of dust on the scanner...). the ship is lit up from the moon. the lines in the sky are how far the stars move across the sky in three minutes of exposure.

it doesn't look real to me.

taken on our mamiya 645.

ps. only two more days to enter our giveaway. don't you dare forget.

where there is a sea, there are pirates

we found our very own pirate ship about forty-five minutes from our house.  that basically makes us pirates. we can't imagine how pirates sailed into lake ontario... but trapped by a manmade stone wall, we imagine these pirates, realizing their ship could not escape, abandoned ship and hitch hiked home on the QEW.

we parked in a snow drift along the lake, stood in the cold for an hour to take pictures (these with our canon a-1, others on a roll that we've lost...), and we spent another hour pushing our car out of the snow drift. and by we, i mean i sat in the car trying not to spin out while tyler pushed...

the long exposure made the full moon as bright as the sun.  but i promise it was night. and cold.

love,

here's another story about where this ship came from. but i'm pretty sure mine story is the correct one.
