Lurker comes out to post

Hello Photrio community,

I joined here in 2018, but haven't posted until now.
One thing that motivated me to post is to acknowledge what a great resource this is!
If I search something photographic online, I often get pointed here.
The depth of knowledge is great. I've only scratched the surface.

I got seriously interested in photography 50 years ago. I know, right!?!
That interest led me to Toronto Metro University (formerly Ryerson Polytechnical Inst.)
I eventually finished with a degree in "Colour Technology".
I'm grateful for that opportunity and it led me to a career in darkroom printing, photofinishing,
Custom lab "Image assembly or photo comp." as they called it, graphic arts repair, and then photofinishing equipment repair.

I've retired, and I've been rebuilding my camera collection and am nearly ready to use my darkroom.

I have a large backlog of film to process, and lots of ideas of photo projects.
I never thought I would process colour film at home, but I've ordered a Kodak kit.

One of my crazy photo project ideas, is to shoot and process some 250 long exposure rolls of film.
If anyone has a way to process that length of film, let me know.

Eventually I will find the right place and post something about that.

Cheers!

Len

Welcome, Lurker Len!

Welcome from nearby!

Good to hear from you. 250 exposure rolls, Brilliant! I have an old aerial film processor, everything from 35mm up to something like 9 inch wide film. It's like the old Morse movie film processor. Simply winds the film back and forth in a couple gallons of developer. Simple
Then there's the giant reels, but those are tricky!
Keep posting.
