Default Hello from Brighton, UK.

Hey ya everyone,

I'm Carl, based in Brighton, UK.

I have been passionate about film photography for many years and have finally got around to blacking out my kitchen for darkroom use since I rarely use it for cooking anything.

My dad got me an old 35mm enlarger as a present some time ago and I've only recently plugged it in and figured out how it all works. I had to buy a 35mm camera as I normally use RZ67proII. I'm in love with the process now and I'm keen to learn more so i thought I'd join you guys as I have lots and lots of questions.

I'm now on a quest to find an enlarger upgrade so I can print 6x7 negs taken with my rz67proII, I'm currently unemployed so the challenge is finding something on a budget... but I will persevere and hopefully find something soon.

I look forward to being a part of your community

Carl.

Welcome Carl. Without wishing to promote "single" living as a way of life, it does sound as if it may be your kitchen to use as a darkroom as you see fit and this is a big plus. As film users we desperately need easy access to darkroom facilities.

Mike
