Hello, APUG! Im so happy to see this site. Everyone here seems to be speaking my language not a comment yet about shooting in RAW amazing!
Its pretty lonely out there when you seem to be the only one still passionate about film, and printmaking in general.
Although Ive been shooting seriously for some years now, I still consider myself a beginner, and really expect to be a lifelong student of the craft. I love shooting B&W film most, including infrared, and just set up a darkroom at home a little over a year ago. I love to develop film, and printmaking is just sheer joy.
My main camera is a Pentax MZ-S, and a Pentax ME for HIE. I also shoot a Holga, an Agfa Super Isolette folder, and a Zeiss Ikon Contaflex Super BC. I enjoy collecting and shooting with older cameras - sort of a linked obsession!
My main interest is in alternative photographic processes. Right now, I do Polaroid image transfers/emulsion lifts, using a Daylab 35 +. Ive been experimenting with bromoil printmaking for the last year. I love the look of lith prints, so thats probably next on the list ..along with more attention to toning than just the basic two-bath sepia approach I was taught. I also enjoy hand coloring and have taught a workshop on the traditional approach.
So many processes .so little time.
I do have a website its badly in need of updating, but some of my stuff is there: www.terrisprinkle.com. I participate in arts festivals a few times a year and got asked one time too many about a website, so there it is.
I expect to learn a lot here the site looks great. Thanks for plowing through all this!
