Finally come out of hiding ...
« on: September 24, 2006, 11:19:10 PM »
I've been lurking for a while, but decided to finally come out of hiding and say "Hi Everyone".

These days my weapons of choice are the Holga 120S and 120N. The addiction was caused by pictures of two of the members here, so I have enjoyed visiting. I also shoot "cheap" rangefinders, SLRs and the odd camera that is older than I am.

When I need to I scan my negs or prints using a steam powered Epson Perfection 2450 scanner. But I much prefer the darkroom and FB selenium toned prints when I have the time and energy.

I've been told that the older I get, the more arthouse my photography becomes, a label I'm happy to have applied as it means I can shoot the way I like and get away with it  ;)

Great to have you here, Tony. Pull up a chair. Relax. Sit a spell.

Hi Dave and thank you :)

Your site is even more impressive though!!

My results so far are purely due to all the help I received from members here when I was on other forums. I truly believe that if it wasn't for the internet, many of us would not be producing the pictures we now do. Not only is it easier to find advice, but in a community like this the support is priceless.
