Hi ya from Aotearoa!
Hi there from me in Auckland, New Zealand.
I have already managed to prove myself a bit of a gorm with my user name - and that will serve me right for not reading all the information before signing up! Would love to change it when I work out who to grovel to. My name is Lou, and I have just resurrected my darkroom after a 12 year hiatus. I have managed to lose any skills I had but it seems to be slowly coming back to me. When I am not photographing, I am painting or jamming on the drums... Or managing a kindy, which is my day job. I'm looking forward to getting to know you all, and learning more about the darkroom. xxx Lou |

Hi Lou and welcome. Sometimes I am a late owl so look forward to getting another reply to my questions from our FADU Kiwis when the N Hemisphere has gone to bed

Greetings from one kiwi to another
Kia Ora. I'm a Kiwi too - living in London now though - can you still obtain darkroom supplies locally? - when I left NZ 7 years ago it was getting more and more difficult to get hold of stuff.

Thanks for the super lovely welcome! And thank you to StanW for pointing me in this fantastic direction
It hasn't been too tricky tracking things down, though I did kind of cheat by buying someone else's used set up. I still have all my stuff in the garage too. I thought I had it hard getting it from Wellington to Auckland, but the previous owner had brought it all over from Belfast! Other than that, the Auckland Camera Centre (would have been Auckland Camera Exchange back then) has a fabulous range and knowledge base. And thanks Dave, grovelling message incoming! xxx Lou |
