Smile Hello from Dublin

Delighted to have discovered this site!

I used a Pentax K1000 in college and got some darkroom experience. Took some pretty average colour shots after that. I went digital in 2007 with a Pentax K10D. While I like the convenience of digital I kept hankering after 'real' black and white photography. Digital lacks that magic of light striking film or a print emerging from developer. I love the feel of negatives and the smells of darkroom chemicals. Maybe that's what happened to me!

I bought a Pentax 67ii on eBay last Christmas. Though I haven't done much with it yet, I love the size and feel of it and the idea of doing 'slow' photography. Some day, I might even have my own darkroom.

Looking forward to exploring film photography again.

Seán
