Hello from a very wet and windy Cumbria
Hello everyone.
I've been a member of FADU for a while now, so I thought it was about time I introduced myself. Although a native of Essex, I now live on the northern fringe of the Lake District, where I indulge in my twin passions of landscape photography and fell-walking. I shoot mainly medium format, in the form of a Mamiya RZ. Alternatively, and especially if any climbing is involved; I prefer my less weighty C330. I have also amassed quite a collection of classic cameras - having a particular penchant for folders of various marques and formats. Time and opportunity is limited, but I try to use these for the purpose for which they were intended - rather than as dust collectors. I'm a relative newcomer to the mysteries of the darkside and still have much to learn. Having said that, I hope I can make some small, but worthwhile contribution to this community. Richard

Welcome Richard from the southern extremity of the Furness Peninsula.
Have fun learning the dark side and don't be afraid to ask for help, it's always available. Bill

Hi Richard and welcome. This winter might be tough where you are but I think you've made the right choice in terms of location. I used to visit that part of Essex that bordered on London and felt that it would have been OK if 95% of the rest of England hadn't decided that it had to live there to make a living.
Mike

Right Location..?
This winter might be tough where you are but I think you've made the right choice in terms of location.
Mike[/QUOTE] Thanks Mike, but having always wanted the luxury of running water in my darkroom, I would have preferred it coming from a tap, (or three) rather than over the sand bags.  Richard
