Oh hi,
I have already posted, and just came across the introduction section.

Hello you good analog people!

I am an editorial photographer from Germany, have lived in New York and Colorado, and am now based out of Savannah, Georgia.

I have played with the idea of converting to digital (like almost everybody, right?), test shot with a Canon Mark something once, plugged into my computer, and disliked it from the get-go.

Have since rediscovered my love for printing and am proudly calling myself "old school", to the dismay of a growing number of editors, and am glad I found this place, great posts, thoughts and info!

Good light to all of you,
Imke

Welcome to APUG, Imke. I applaud your effort to stay traditional, or "old school" as you expressed it, in the face of growing pressure from editors to keep the whole process digital.

Hi and welcome Imke from way down under in Oz. There's lots of like-minded people here.

Welcome Imke from that funny little island off the french coast! ;)

Welcome and good luck and godspeed with your perseverence in the face of the digital revolution in journalistic works.

Thanks you the warm and international welcome y'all!
Cheers,
Imke

I hope we get to meet someday, I'd like to have a Southeast gathering in Savannah someday.
