About me:

I bought my first camera in 1990, a Fuji FZ-5 (all fixed: focus, speed, aperture, only option was to turn off the flash). I do not have it anymore.
At that time I used SLR from friends.
I also used a darkroom sometimes.
A few years later I bought a second-hand Canon EOS 600 that I used until I switched to digital point-and-shoots.
I return to film in the beggining of 2013.
I now have the EOS 600, an Yashica M that was my Mom's, a Polaroid 600, a Nikon N80 (my main camera now) and sometimes I use a plastic DIY TLR that belongs to my kids. I am also playing with a matchbox pinhole with little sucess.
I shoot B&W mostly, but color every now and then.
I develop my B&W films with Caffenol at home.
I scan with a DSLR and a macro lens.
I also shoot digital when I feel like it.
I live in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Your Yashica M looks like a fine camera. I have a weak spot for film rangefinders. Your N80 Nikkor is close to my heart, too. I have a N50 and an N70. Their menus are a little fussy but they take great photographs. I have lenses for them from 18mm to 500mm and I can use the lenses on my digital Nikon D50, too. But mostly I like to shoot film.
 
Welcome to APUG! I too used to have a Nikon N80 but sold it to buy some lenses. I missed it until I got my F100. ;-) Anyway, good to have you here!
 
Welcome!

That house.... has it got a shade on top?
 
Yes, they were scanned with a D5100 and a 60mm micro Nikkor.
The buinding is Instituto Tomie Ohtake in São Paulo, and yes, it has a shade on top.
