shooting colour - nice surprises - praise to photo express

I don't shoot much colour as I like to D&P my own B&W, so the colour films stick around. They also pile up a bit until I can get round to posting them off to the processor. Just had 7 returned spanning back a year (I know!!). One of the joys of film I think is the anticipation of getting the images back from the processor and then remembering those places that appear as semi forgotten memories. Just posted girl dog fern in the gallery. I'd totally forgotten shooting that!

Perhaps I should send them off sooner, but really enjoyed getting that envelope this morning. Anybody else shoot this way?

Finally, compliments to Photo Express in Hull again. perfect developing. Nice clean negs and 6Mb scans for a fiver a film. Why wouldn't you!

If you think getting color film back in the mail is great, pulling a glossy wet print dripping with color out of a print drum is even better! Nice work.

I've used Photoexpress in Hull for several years for colur neg work (when I'm not doing-it-myself)....highly recommended, faultless negs and excellent prints. all at fair prices. And normally one-day turnaround. (No connection other than as a satsified customer).

I bet, but my darkroom is only 4'6" by 6'6" and although I can just fit in all I need to do B&W comfortably, colour would be a challenge.
