Default Hello! :)

Good evening all! I've been a bit of a lurker on here for a while, reading some very interesting threads and I think now is the time for joining in the discussion.

I've had an interest in photography for a long time, and last year did the first year of a photography course at college (I won't go into why I left..!). I'm now working and am using my wages to set up my darkroom at home. Despite my best attempts, I struggle to get enthusiastic about digital and almost all of my work is done with film.

A few months ago I was given a nearly full darkroom kit on Freecycle and now finally have the pennies to use it.

I have a few questions to ask and will post those in the relevant sections.

Thanks for reading,

Matthew
