Hi

I am new to FADU and would like to tell you a few things about myself

I live in Swindon and have been a amateur and now retired semi pro for more years than I care to mention

I have my own recently reinstated darkroom and have just returned to film photography

As digital takes over I am finding, at my local club, that it seems now to be a case of who is best at Photoshop. I have no doubt a lot of the images are fantastic and expertly done but this is going away from my type of photography. I still believe that the image should be as it was seen in the viewfinder. I can understand dodging and burning a photo to make it look better, but taking things out of pictures and replacing new items does not interest me anymore.

I would like to meet up with like minded people occasionally so please get in touch. My free time time is limited at weekends with family b ut I do have the odd day during the week.

Welcome Terry. As others have said what you mention as a facet of camera clubs seems to be increasingly common but "returners to film" do seem to be on the increase.

Fadu sounds like just the place for you Terry.

Many of us take part in a monthly print exchange that might be of interest to you.
