I've been visiting APUG (and rangefinderforum) over the past few months for B&W film development tips. I was dabbling with film at first, now it's all I shoot so I figured I might as well jump on board.
I've been taking photographs for about 2 years now. I started digital, as so many do these days. My father had an old Pentax ME Super laying around. After familiarizing myself with the controls, I popped in a roll of XP2 and was on my way. Fast forward two years, the only time I pick up a digital is for paid work.
It's been strictly 35mm so far. My main bodies are a Nikon F4 with MB-20 grip and a Leica M4. I've been quite pleased with the quality, but there have been a few shots I know would have been amazing in medium/large format. The size and functionality of the Mamiya 6 appeals to me, so I'm on the lookout for one.
I shoot mostly street and architecture. Lately I've been interested in street portraits so I just picked up a Nikon 85 1.8D (am I the only one that finds autofocusing harder than manual focusing?). I started a Flickr group for Dallas photographers, so you can see some of our work here:

Anyways, glad to be here and look forward to contributing to this great community.
