Default Hi - Another Texan here!

Hello,
My name is Katie and I am from Central Texas (La Grange, to be exact) somewhere in the middle of Austin, Houston and San Antonio. I was extended an invitation by Mr. Butler who so kindly answered some questions for me over on another board. I am looking forward to reading some posts and getting involved here!

I have been a professional photographer for years, but recently became a film/darkroom user. I have my own darkroom and am shooting 35mm (canon and minolta) and MF (Hasselblad and Bronica). I use an old D2 enlarger with an Ilford Multigrade 500 system (love!). I am currently experimenting with some different fiber papers, and have started bleaching and toning some of my prints.

Hope to find my niche soon.

Hello Katie and welcome to FADU.

I enjoyed reading your introduction and I am sure you will settle in quickly and feel at home. Your experience is most welcome too and I look forward to seeing your images and reading your posts.

Have a good look around FADU and enjoy yourself :-)

Neil.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I'm off to read some posts ... and then must be out for the evening to shoot a client. Not dead. With a camera, of course.
