Default Hello from Bristol

Hi everyone,

I'm Stuart Heath, a 43-year-old Welshman currently based in Bristol.

In 2007 I was given a DSLR which led me to buy an auto-focus film SLR which led me to buy a manual-focus SLR which led me to buy a couple of TLRs. In 2009 I started developing my own b&w film (35mm & 6x6) at home. More recently I've dabbled a little with large format (having acquired a 4x5 Crown Graphic) and have made some first hamfisted attempts at b&w print-making in my tiny spare-bathroom-turned-darkroom.

I'm very much an amateur/hobbyist with more enthusiasm than talent (and sometimes not very much enthusiasm), but am happy, for example, to have had the chance to shoot some Kodachrome before it was discontinued.

I'm on Flickr, also as misteraitch.

Cheers,
Stuart

Hi Stuart and welcome to a forum where there are others of us( well me anyway) with more enthusiasm than talent so join the brotherhood

I like the way that you've arrived by a kind of very enjoyable reverse evolution.

Mike
