Just wanted to introduce myself quickly.

52 years old, bald and taking pictures since I was about 15. A brand new Rollei 35M was my first camera.... for about 3 months. Beautiful camera, but it never worked, so I got a Canon AE-1, which got stolen 2 years later. Then I got a Nikon F for free to replace it and it was photographic heaven!

Went from film to digital in 2004 with the Canon Rebel, then a 40D.... Never really used these things. And I stupidly had sold my F....

In 2012 I bought a Fuji X100 and that great feeling camera strange l'y brought me back to film!

By now I have sold all digital crap and after a wide collection of cameras (Leica CL, Olympus XA, XA2 and SP35, Canon AE-1 and A1...) I have settled on a beautiful OM2n and an Olympus Trip35

Hope to present some of my pictures to you shortly

Great story.. I was stationed in Bitburg AB Germany back in the early 90's and traveled to your beautiful county.

Welcome to APUG, Frank. There's a lot of good stuff here. What about darkroom and you?
Anyway, this makes at least two APUG'ers in Luxembourg

Hello , Welcome to APUG , When I saw your post , I asked myself What do I know about Luxembourg , I checked the internet and learned half of the population is immigrants and half of it is from portugal , no navy , no airforce and as a mighty member of nato , only eight hundred soldiers Mighty history but it seems to me the most exciting thing is the language. I dont know what would I do if I learn it but its a luxury thing I guess as nobody needs a mechanical watch As a Turkish speaker , marollian , flemish and luxembourgish , I dont know how they are related , is so creatively designed , I like it most. But Turkish language is a giant monster when you find turkish sentences , not word to word play , when you ethymologically analysis russian to chinese to nordic languages. Celts tought you very well. I suggest to myself to make ethymological dictionary making but I suggest to you to learn Turkish and your jaw would be drop.
