Talking Hi from the dizzy heights of West Norfolk!

Good to be part of something a bit 'local'. I shoot most things that don't move - landscapes, architecture (preferably derelict), boats (preferably derelict), trains (preferably derelict) bicycles (preferably d........ you get the idea?) my wife says I'm obsessed with decay and decrepitude - I dont know what she's talking about!

I shoot mostly medium format (Bronica ETRSi) but when travelling I use Olympus OM 35mm gear. I also like using old (not quite derelict) cameras. I use HP5+ as my general film but also shoot a lot of Panf and Delta100. I've just started mixing my own chemicals (ID11, D23, and Stoeckler's 2-bath so far) with a bit of success.

My next project is to try a bit of pinhole photography.

Please don't try to pick my brains - it will only make a mess of your fingernails!

Welcome Rob, good to see you here. I'd be interested to hear of your successes (or otherwise), with D23, Stoeckler etc.
