Default Hello from Exeter, Devon

Hello,

I've been lurking on here for a while now, but thought it was about time I introduced myself properly!

I'm a long-time film user, living in Exeter. I work with a range of processes and formats: mono, E6 and C41, in 35mm and medium format (mostly 6x6cm). Although I occasionally use digital for travel, the overwhelming majority of my work is shot on film.

My favoured subject matter I would loosely term 'landscapes and nature', but basically anything that catches my eye outdoors. I have a particular love for coastal subjects, but I also have great fun shooting wild landscapes, woodland details and urban architecture (the more decrepit the better!).

I have a full B&W darkroom, but it is currently in storage pending a house move later in the year, so I'm currently concentrating on colour. After using Velvia for many years, I've recently rediscovered the joys of colour negatives with the excellent Kodak Ektar 100 and am processing my own C41 at home. I hope to try RA4 colour printing in the future, but currently I'm restricted to scanning negatives and printing digitally, which just isn't as satisfying as darkroom work.

If anyone's interested I have a range of images posted on flickr, and also a standalone website:

http://www.vision-and-light.co.uk/

Anyway, just thought I'd say 'hi'. See you around!

Ed Pavelin

Hello Ed and welcome to FADU. I enjoyed your images on Flicker and having lived in Devon for 33 years I recognised many of the locations. You have a super collection of images from Devon and beyond.

Neil.

I'm new here and, just like you, I was peeking around the nooks and crannies here before my introduction. Lots of warm welcomes. Nice people.

We will learn together and have some fun while doing it!

Welcome & have a wonderful 2011.
