Greetings to everybody. I've known of APUG for quite a while, and I don't know why it took me so long to get around to subscribing!
I've been into photography for many years now, and up until 20 years ago, I had a darkroom to keep me happy. That went due to various house moves, but now I have been settled, the garage has undergone a transformation - and I am sooo happy!
I am a bit of a tart when it comes to camera use, I have a variety of formats, and happily chop and change. Primarily shoot B&W, and have found myself moving from my old "f64" leanings, to a more pictorial approach nowadays.
Also have discovered the delights of alternative processes (mainly through the writings of Mike Ware, but bolstered by the "Unblinking Eye" site, and Bostick & Sullivan), I have also been getting into toning through the excellent writings of Tim Rudman (yes, I know he is a subscriber, and I hope I'm not being too sucky!!
Anyway. I look forward to many lively discussions on the fora, and thanks Sean for starting such an excellent resource.
Cheers
Steve
