Default Hello I'm Leo Stehlik

Hello from Leo. I live in Orpington, Kent since 2006 where I have moved in due to my work commitments (non-photography related) from mainland Europe (Czech Republic).

I was on and of analogue photography as a keen amateur since my early age, influenced by both my grandmother and my parents. I have had a brief digital "dark-age" between 2000 - 2007, and went back to film and re-set up my darkroom in 2008.

I shoot on Graflex Crown Graphic 5x4", Flexaret, Welta Weltax (6x6cm) and Yashica Minister D (35mm). I also shoot moving images on the Super 8 format.

I found FADU by accident by searching for some information on split-grade printing on google, and I ended up finding the (great) article "The Power of Split Grade Printing and Post Flashing" by Les McLean...

One of my goals for 2010 - finally manage to get my process back to normal after changing my old condenser enlarger to a diffuser one in mid-2009...

Hi Leo and welcome to FADU. Good to hear that at least one citizen of Orpington is a film user I think all the members of Orpington Photographic Society have turned to the D-side?
