Hi everyone.
I'm José. I'm originally from San Diego, California but have been living in Honolulu, Hawaii for almost fifteen years.
I'm new to the forum but have been making photographs for most of my life...mostly film. I don't own a digital camera at the moment but I shoot with a few different cameras;
Nikon F100
Nikon F4
Mamiya M645 1000s (currently out for a CLA)
Olympus 35SP rangefinder
Polaroid one-step 600
One day I hope to own a Leica M2, a Hasselblad 503cw and a Mamiya 7ii.
I'm getting back into processing my own film again and was recently gifted an enlarger: an Omega, Super Chromega C Dichroic that seems to need a little TLC.
Hopefully I'll have a darkroom set up soon so I can start making prints.
I'm also a printmaker (screen printing, lithography, wood cuts, intaglio, etc)
@subtlelikeatrex on IG if you feel so inclined.
attached is a bad phone photo of a print I made of these dancers from FSM (Federated States of Micronesia) during the Festival of Pacific Art and Culture, here in Honolulu last summer. It was the first time the festival had been held in Hawaii. Delegations from all over the Pacific came to Hawaii to demonstrate their culture through song, dance, and art. I made this image with my M645.
Salud!
