Anybody home?

I just found this section, and there have been no posts since April. Is it active? As a film user living in new mexico, I'm interested.

There are a number of people in your area here, and they seem active. Probably just nothing much going on in the summer... I've got some amazing petroglyph pictures from my last trip out your way, from a park that was going to be a state park but was not yet at the time. The ranger allowed me to wander at will and I was able to get access that no one was going to be able to get once the park became official. There are some absolutely amazing locations out there - I'd love to get back sometime.

There hasn't been a lot of activity on this forum and not a lot of planned events. There was an attempt to organize a get-together this spring, but I suspect it didn't materialize. There are quite a few APUGgers in NM, though, hopefully they're just too busy photographing our wonderful state to spend a lot of time online.

By way of introduction, I live in the Albuquerque area and shoot primarily medium format, with an occasional roll of 35mm thrown in for good measure. I work almost exclusively in B&W (usually Ilford FP4+ and HP5+). My favorite subjects include landscapes and historical sites/ruins/abandoned places. In the past, I've done some night photography and would love to get back into it, but it's really difficult to find the time to do everything I want to do. Right now I'm trying to clear a film backlog from a recent trip to the Midwest and to get a recently acquired enlarger up and running and installed. Beyond photography, my other interests include hiking, rockhounding and geocaching.

Glad you found us, hopefully some other NM APUG people will check in and say hi.

I'm in Los Alamos. I also am a medium format person who does a lot of landscapes and rocks. I'm a retired engineer. I do some hiking, but my age is beginning to catch up with me. I just moved to here a few months ago.
