Hi Everyone.

I am currently traveling around Australia at the moment and was wondering if anyone can tell me places where I can print. I mostly do B&W but I also have color. Also if anyone knows of any places in SOutheast Asia can you let me know.

Cheers!

What does your itinerary look like? I'm in Victoria right down south. I've just rearranged my house to accommodate a new enlarger so my "darkroom" is now in the spare room rather than the laundry meaning that prints are dumped in a bucket and held there until the end of my printing session to be washed in the other room. So, that being said, I have a darkroom if you don't mind ad hoc I also have a tank and chemicals for you to dev black and white film. I just read your intro thread where you were looking for ideas for developing film on the road. Anyway, while I can't help you out with developing colour, there is a local lab for that.

Let us know where you're travelling specifically. There may be others nearer to your destinations (and most definitely better set up than I am) who can help you out, too.

Thanks guys. Well I am currently 2hrs outside of Melbourne. I am suppose to be heading towards the Gold Coast but my visa is almost done and I have to leave. Haven't decided if I'll do a visa run or not.

G'day mate, I've just caught up with your thread now, I'm just down the coast from Melbourne, in Geelong, have a shed converted to a darkroom that you're welcome to use (if you're still around here). I'm moving house in te next couple weeks to a place that will (hopefully) double the size of the darkroom, just give me a week to make sure it's light-tight and it'll be up and running again. B&W only, formats from 35mm->4x5 ...or anything you can contact print
