Whistler in Pictures
Amanda | March 19, 2010
All shot on a Yashica FX3 with Kodak Portra 400NC film. My favourite shot is the first one and yet it was shot from a moving car through the window.

Thank You For The Cheer
Amanda | February 25, 2010
Hello all. I just wanted to say thank you for all the lovely comments of late. I usually drop new commenters a hello email but I haven’t done this week as I am a sick, sad sack. I’ve spent far too much time on the couch and am going a little bonkers! Hopefully I’ll be [...]
Dark and Light
Amanda | February 19, 2010
Dark and Light…which do you prefer? I love how two images of similar items can be so strikingly different. I think what is consistent is finding that light to make the image better. If I had shot the first shot in strong sunlight, it wouldn’t have had the same effect. Both were shot on overcast [...]
Thomas Haas, I Love You
Amanda | February 16, 2010
I shall pronounce it here, loud and clear, You know that feeling of guilt you get when you are eating something bad in a food court or chomping on a caramel top ice cream at the movies? That little demon in your head telling you that you shouldn’t be putting that in your mouth and [...]
Polaroid Woes
Amanda | February 10, 2010
And just like that, the Polaroid film is gone. I knew embarking on a Polaroid a day project would end in disaster. If you haven’t already heard my cries of woe all over Flickr and Twitter, be thankful that you don’t have to live with me to hear me whine all the more about my [...]
Mulder and Scully
Amanda | February 9, 2010
I ADORE the fact that one of the comments I got for these shots on Flickr was “Oh Manda, this is something right out of the first few seasons of the X-files” That comment gave me the biggest grin because I totally love that I’m living in the land of Mulder and Scully. If I [...]
Weekend On Film
Amanda | February 7, 2010
What weekends are about, right? Taken at Sophie’s Cosmic Cafe, Vancouver.
Summer Dreaming
Amanda | January 30, 2010
A little sunshine for a dreary winter weekend. I have never been so ready for summer in my life. I hope you’re enjoying it, Aussies! These shots were taken with my Nikon FM3a film camera. I used Kodak Portra160NC (my usual sunny film of choice). The 2 square shots on the bottom right were taken [...]
Autumn in Colour
Amanda | October 29, 2009
There certainly isn’t a lot of colour around Vancouver this week. I am going to have to embrace rain photography with my camera or I’m going to have to stop shooting. This is a little Vancouver Autumn colour for you. It’s so pretty here in Autumn that I get shocked every time I see it [...]
Film For a Few
Amanda | October 20, 2009
Needing a little Spring and colour inspiration…I hope you’re enjoying it, Sydney people! Taken in Sydney with my Yashica FX3 using Kodak Portra 160NC film.
