Default Greetings from Northampton

Hi everyone.
I suppose I'm a born again darkroom user. I did a lot of B&W developing and printing in my youth, tried to get into digital over the years, and have now decided that I will always prefer film, and have a better chance of taking a good photograph without a giant memory card in my camera.

Cheap SLRs on eBay further seduced me away from digital, and now I'm beginning to explore medium and large format. And though this reads like an addict's confession, I am loving it!

I look forward to exploring the wealth of experience and wisdom here. In particular I will be looking for inspiration to help me stay a photographer and not backslide into being only a camera collector, beautiful though they are.

Welcome, nothing wrong with camera collectors, just as long as you give your cameras a run out now and again to keep them from seizing up.

Welcome Hatless. Just built my own darkroom, getting ready to spend the dark nights in the dark!
