Hi everyone. Just wanted to say hello and how glad I am to have found APUG.
I've just started learning darkroom practice at college as a mature student in my early 50s, although I did shoot film with SLRs before it just became a bit too expensive to keep sending films to labs for printing. But DIY makes it a whole different proposition, not least because it's so exciting.
I have three 35mm SLRs (and access to two others) and a Bronica ETR system, which I've only recently acquired and am still learning about it.
After a very brief look around, I can already see I'm going to enjoy supplementing my education here, and I hope I'll make some new friends along the way.
I just dived into a thread about Anton Corbijn - I think it's over in the darkroom section - which adds a bit to my recent background, so I won't repeat it here.
Cheers,
Avril
