Hi, I live in Geelong, Australia (South east coast), and have had a life time interest in photography.
My interests are mainly landscapes, and long exposure photography.
I started getting interested in B&W analog photography (medium format and 35mm) and darkroom last year as I see it as a way to do something different from every else is doing with their digital cameras. It also enabled me to focus on producing prints, rather than having thousands of digital files that I never look at.
I have set up a make shift darkroom and been buying equipment using this forum at times to understand what people are using and the quirks.
My cameras are a Mamiya 7 (medium format), and a Nikon F6 (35mm). I am looking into a Toyo field camera to try some 4x5.
Looking forward to learning from and contributing to this group.
Damien
