Horses

Another stop, this time for horses and a scenic landscape. I hope cross-processing adds something to this photo.

Donkeys

We had to stop to take photos of these donkeys. The photo is not excellent, but then again, all these photos have taken with an old point and shoot camera with a plastic lens.

Have no idea how to comment this photo or why it was even taken....

Fisherman cabins

You can never get enough of these wonderful and often colourful fisherman cabins, which line the harbours and ocean side.

On the beach

You can see all kind of debris and driftwood between many little rocks and other material.

To the ocean

It was the ebb tide at the moment, but after some time we could start seeing the flood tide coming in.

Rocks

To get to the ocean, we had to cross many huge rocks by the coast.

This day was really exciting, as it was my first time to see ocean.

On the road with point and shoot - it is easy, you point the camera out o the window and shoot :)

Welcome to Nova Scotia

The following series is going to be very different from, what I have usually presented. I took the photos using the simple point and shoot film camera, which I loaded with slide film and I asked it to be developed with C-41 process. Here you can see the crazy outcome of this cross-process.

Sparkle

Last so-called normal shot from Nova Scotia. The next one will be cross-processed ;)

Etta

The best I got to experience besides the nature in Nova Scotia was this wonderful woman - Etta. She made friends with me, shared her time, food, cottage and home with me. Took me to trips, showed me around, fed me -  I have never met a person like that before. Thank you Etta.

Sunset

We catch a nice day on the lake - with clouds and sun rays.

Cottages vol. 1

Etta took me out on a paddle with canoes on the lake and I got to see the cottages, I was so familiar with on land, from the water.

Perfect reflection

I think this is one of my favorite photos shot on a slide film.

Shot on FUJI slide film Velvia F at 135 format, ISO 100, Canon AE-1 P

Coniferous. Perfect.

I went with Etta to a forest for a walk and to take photos. I loved the light there and it was a pleasure to catch it.

Rolling green

Came to visit Annapolis Royal for few hours. What a true beauty the former fort area is showing.

Green lake

Have been keeping my eye on the fish and frogs etc.

Blue on blue

This is why I like Canadian nature so much - all this peace and beauty.

Rain on the lake

Finally some harsh weather - rain!

Isn't that beautiful?

Sunset vol. 2

Since it was such a breath-taking view I took few frames to save this moment.

Sunset vol. 1

This was actually taken before arriving to Nova Scotia, while somewhere in New Brunswick, me and my driver experienced this amazing sunset over the mountains on top of the hill.

Bliss

Weather has been wonderful in Noca Scotia, in the little secluded forest.

First days I took time to get to know the area through the lens.

My friend Kadri came to visit me in Toronto and we three had a ball in the city.

Closer to CN Tower at this point.

Air Canada and downtown Toronto

From Gardiner Expressway you can see a great glimpse of Toronto downtown.

Spadina, possibly

I really can't think of exactly, which street it was, but most likely it is Spadina.

A view on the tower when arriving back to Toronto from New York City.

Snickers cake

Felt like something sweet and we found a bakery before leaving the city, full of all kinds of goodies. Snickers bar cake kind of talked to me, but of course it looked better than it tasted :P

I do not trust the North America cake business :P

The tip of Manhattan

Busy spring traffic flowing under the Brooklyn Bridge in the tip of Manhattan.

View from the Brooklyn Bridge vol. 2

Another postcard shot, not because it is so good, but shows some of New York City. Empire State Building in the middle.

Moon over Manhattan

I really love this minimalist shot of the moon captured through the grid of Brooklyn Bridge.

Postcard shot, not because it is so good, but shows some of New York City. Chrysler Building in the middle.

Traffic never stops

When people walk on the upper lever of the Brooklyn Bridge, the cars drive busy on the lower level, as seen so many times in the movies!

Brooklyn Bridge

A little away from the main downtown core, one of the landmarks of NYC lies on the southeastern side of Manhattan island.
