Hello: I'm in the north of Ireland
...and I'm really pleased to find this site, which I've taken a bit of a look at before posting this.
I'm Michael, living in Ballinderry Lower in Co. Antrim. My first camera was the usual Brownie 127, a birthday present in 1955. It still works, roughly; but it has to compete with a Baby Rollei for film. My cameras of choice nowadays are an Arca Pro II, a Mamiya C3 and a Fuji 645 with 60mm lens. I have no darkroom but do my own b&w processing (did E6 and C41 as well for medium format until Paterson's C41 chemistry lapsed). A lab does some mono printing for me: I scan my negatives and transparencies and use an inkjet printer for colour prints. In addition, I print digital negatives for cyanotypes, POP (RIP?) and argyrotypes, as well as contact printing 5x4s. The argyrotype sensitiser is bought but I've been experimenting with various mixes for cyanotypes. Sorry about the length of this. |

Perhaps you'll consider posting some of your "alternative" experiences on the Forum some time. I look forward to seeing some of your images too. |
