This is another roll of film from my summer backlog, dating to mid-July when I was back in town for a week or so. These are all taken with my Canon Elan 7N, most often, or perhaps always, with the EF 50/1.4 mounted. Most of these shots are taken on, or on the way to, Mayne Island where we visited for a day but a few are taken in the Chinatown area of Victoria and nearby.
Mayne Island is a beautiful place in British Columbia’s Gulf Islands – they are the same geographical feature as the San Juan Islands across the border in Washington State. A lucky few find a way of living in the Gulf Islands, a life that has many attractions.
The rest of this roll is experiments with intentional double exposures. By and large they are fails, but if interested you can find them at Ross Bay Villa Doubled on my blog (at this link) published simultaneously to this post.

Roll 38: Canon Elan 7N; various lenses; expired Fuji Superia X-TRA 400, shot at 200 ISO, commercially developed and scanned.

Yesterday’s post featured double exposures from this same roll of film. If you click through to 52Rolls, you will find the rest of the roll which is from Mayne Island, and around Victoria.

The first photo of trees is a beauty

Thanks Peter – those are unusual trees, local to the dry areas of the west coast. Madrone or arbutus, they shed their bark seasonally, and are evergreen, losing their leaves slowly in the summer, but never looking as if they have none. They prefer exceptionally well drained rocky landscapes and often have twisted trunks and limbs.

FYI – not everything reminds me of a Bruce Cockburn song. Your mention of arbutus reminded me of this poem – http://bit.ly/1RRNzzH – written by my pal Paul Zarzyski. (Random songs and poems take up a LOT of room in my head…)

Thanks Melinda, that is a very good poem. It needs to be read slowly, doesn’t it? Lots of my own childhood echos in those words.

One thing about Paul Zarzycki is that he uses a LOT of words, always. He’s one of my very favorite poems, though I can’t quote him as much as I can quote you-know-who…
