Default Hello from Bangladesh & UK

Hello Everyone,

I'm Ashfaque (same as in APUG, RFF, etc.) - an economics student and researcher (asset pricing) by profession. English is not my first language. So, please bear with me.

I first used film camera in the mid 1980s (dad'd Yashica) - was only 5-6 yrs old. Then there was a big gap, followed by some 'digitals' and finally back to film. But I've only recently started developing B&W films myself.

Since there is no B&W film available in BD, I get my stuffs from all over the world - mainly through friends, relatives and 3rd party sellers. It's annoying to wait, but I must say when I get those stuffs in my hands, I get so giddy. I also make sure everyone know what kind of presents I like. It's always films and other analogue stuffs.

I like landscapes photography, both urban and natural. But I like other stuffs as well. I'd like to move to medium format as soon as I gain some confidence in 35mm. I hope to get an enlarger soon too. So there is lot to learn.

You can find my 'new' flickr account here. Had to open a new one, because I didn't use the old one (<- mostly digital stuffs) for a very long time and forgot all the necessary details. I'll share some at flickr (not here obviously) as soon as I get my film scanner back.

Essentially, I'm here to learn. I hope you won't mind if I occasionally ask silly, or, already addressed questions.

Bests,

Ashfaque

Welcome.

Your English is better than that of some who claim it to be their first language!
