Hello all.
My name is Joanna, I'm from the Netherlands. I started out taking pictures wist an Agfa instamatic as a child, way back in the 80s.
Two years ago I took up photography with a canera again. My first SLR was a Praktica BC3, picked up at a thrift store. It needed tinkering, as well as a few other camera's I brought home. So I guess now I'm a collector and a tinkerer as well.

Digitally I work with a Nikon D5200, Canon 1200D and Olympus Pen E PL8.
For my analogue photography I prefer either my Lomo LC-A or mju ii.
I'm slowly moving towards medium format b/w photography, in the process of setting up a darkroom and hopefully this week I'll getting an old Beier Precisa in working order, then load it with film and experiment. 😀

That’s quite an intro. I admire your dedication and enthusiasm. Photography is a noble art, and as I pursue it I realize how rewarding it is, as it makes me more mindful, and attentive of the world around me, and it forces me to quiet down my many voices, and speak singularly with images.
I wish you the best with your art, and your darkroom.
Years ago there was a movement of folks developing B&W images with coffee, a bit less harsh chemical. They called it caffenol if I’m not mistaken. It was quite the thing here in Knoxville….
Anyhow, kind regards. Best wishes. And welcome.
