Default Hi from North Scotland.

I saw this site advertised in Jan 09 edition of B+W Photography and was keen to support anything that promotes traditional film use and priniting.

I live in darkest Aberdeenshire and photograph in the local area. I use a Mamiya 6 rangefinder and an old Canon AE-1 for infrared. My wife has allowed me to black-out the windows in the utility room to create a darkroom-which is actually pretty decent of her.

Anyway, Hi to all, and hope the site's a success.

Niall.

Hi, and welcome to FADU, Niall. It is good that your wife is supportive of your creative urges and I look forward to seeing some of your work in due
course

Neil.

Aye, aye min, fit like? Keep chaving awa. I wis born in Ellon and bided in Bocksie but I've nae bin back for mair than thirty ears.

Fit bit are ye fae?

It's a spoken dialect, not a written one so the above is an attempt to write it as it is spoken and it's been a long time since I heard it.

Of course you might not be a native in which case I'll return to English. Glad there's at least one other from an area of Scotland where the speech owes more to low Dutch than Gaelic.

Welcome aboard Niall!

No shortage of things to photograph in Aberdeenshire I suspect

Have fun, Bob.

Just off to the beach for a cup of mulled wine and some Stollen. If you wave, I may see you :-)
