After I graduated from being an APUG lurker for much time I decided to participate more actively in this fine site. I'm a 42 y.o. high school teacher, photoshop educator and amateur photographer for about 8 years now.
I've started with 35mm then ventured for about a year in medium format and then went in digital and now I'm partially back to film the reason being that I can't find an appropriate paper for hand coloring my prints in the inkjet world. Why, no photoshop, you ask? Because, personally, I'm more excited about handcrafted images and creations than inkjet prints.
I use the community darkroom of the local photography club for my film development and (recently) wet printing. I'm using Ilford FB (the last fiber paper that I can still find in Greece) and generally i'm an all Ilford guy.
I shoot mainly HP5 and some FP4 and occasionaly PanF.
I also have a brick of Kodak TMX 400 waiting patiently in the fridge.
Nice to meet everyone and since I'm rediscovering the medium I hope you people will be patient with my questions.
