Default Hello

Just a quick hello to everyone.

I'm in my mid 50s, and live in West Yorkshire.

I'm a "returnee" to film after a total absence of many years from photography, followed by a couple of years with a d***tal camera.

I've been fortunate to get some very good film cameras and lenses at quite reasonable prices, and shoot both 35mm and 120.

My main interest is black and white, although I do shoot some colour transparency.

My "darkroom" is living in a box under the desk at the moment, although I'm frantically trying to make room for it while at the same time getting out to shoot something to print.

Best wishes to you all

JamesK

Welcome.

Your film to digital and back to film route is quite common amongst us, as is getting good cameras for reasonable prices (or free).


Steve.
