Smile eric

hi everyone,
im 73 yrs old i use 2 cameras 1)6x6 Sl 66 2)tachiha 5x4 . My main interest are landscape and picturial. As for darkroom I have a zone vi enlarger, I have just got the stopclock timer. my work in their goes from str8 prints, to toning and lith work, I also like doing bromoil.
i startedd using camerass at an early age taking photos of aircraft at the tender age of 14. I am precdent of the local camera club (though i do very little work there )as they are hooked on digi pics.
I have hadd a few local exhibitions here on the I.O.W at Dimbola lodge museum.(the home of Julia Margaret Cameron.
thats just about it dont want to bore you to much

Hi Eric, thanks for the intro. Little danger of boring us with your details. I too have an SL66, a very good camera, but one I don't use enough.

Hi Eric
Absolutely no danger of "boring" us. You sound well experienced and interesting, bet your exhibitions at Dimbola Lodge made you proud.
Some good stuff in FADU.

Eric's exhibition of bromoil prints was certainly worth seeing, not just for the prints, but also for a read of the comprehensive guide book he produced on the process.
