Default Hello from Salem, Virginia

Hi all, I'm Paul, living in Salem Virginia, but am originally from Northern Ireland. I've been shooting film again since late 2009 but only recently went all-in and started building out a semi-permanent darkroom in our rented apartment. I'm at the point where I'm about to make my first real print, having finally made sure my darkroom is dark and my safelight is safe (that's a "yes" on both counts).

It's all terribly exciting!

I found my way here via Bruce Robbins' "Online Darkroom" blog.

Cheers,
Paul.

Welcome aboard Paul.

Sounds like we have lured another one in to the darkside :-)

You remind me that I have not visited the Online Darkroom for a while - must pop over there and pay a visit.


Have fun, and any questions, feel free to ask on the forums.


Cheers, Bob.

hi Paul like the name welcome to FADU I love this hobby of ours trouble
is people always want a print or two but never seem to offer any expenses, I always put my name on the back as the prints should last longer than us, good luck and enjoy your new darkroom.....

Hi Pau - welcome!

I visited Salem, whilst on a holiday to Boston (lovely place) some years ago now and found the town really interesting. Like all the other tourists that go there, I just had to visit because of all the film / book references. What made you end up living there out of interest?
