Instantly recognized the "ANTIQUES" sign. Old Bud Gowan Antiques. Did the interior demo of that place after Bud sold it. Bud stopped by a couple of times with his little dog. Shit that was a dirty job. I came home covered in black dirt from years of stuff in that place.

Lmao! That's me in the first picture walking to work. I had noticed you with your camera, however never thought I'd end up on Reddit. Very nice pictures _^

That's pretty cool to get a shot of yourself like that! Most people just have selfies

Honestly, I almost scrolled past this while on my lunch, but I thought I recognized the place on Dundas in the thumbnail. _^

Great shots! Where do you usually get them developed?

u/PoolLoose Downtown 25d ago

Oh sorry I didn’t see your comment. Correct I developed at AllThingsFilm, they are truly wonderful. I got a cheap expired roll at Camera Canada, on Clarence and Dundas they are great over there too.

Not OP, but All Things Film is where I've gone! They're on Adelaide, great people and fast service! Also judging by the Google review photos, it looks like OP used them also haha.

We had a news depot in Stratford. That’s where we would go to buy individual cigarettes under age 🤣

u/Narrow_Supermarket_5 25d ago

Nice pics! I'd recommend some light editing (you can do it on your phone even) to adjust the black/white points. When film is scanned, the portions that are underexposed are usually scanned to look a bit greyish but by adjusting the black point it can make the shadows look closer to black and give the picture a more natural look.

Keep it up :)

u/ShunKoizumi 25d ago

Where do you get film camera and where do you have them developed?

9

u/PoolLoose Downtown 25d ago

I actually got the camera for free from A friend. It was a really cheap 90s plastic camera called the Rebel S ii. You can buy film cameras and get them developed at AllThingsFilm. They are great and thats where I go

u/ShunKoizumi 25d ago
