Moersch Easylith and a 50 sheet box of Ilford MGWT. I've just started lith printing and love it. The MGWT is for two portfolios I plan to complete in 2015.

This paper is beautiful with Lith . small trick to pull early and let the contrast explode in the fix. Don't let anyone tell you this paper is not for lith..

Thanks Bob. I'll definitely try some, since I have a fair amount of old MGWT, too. I tried a couple of sheets of old Galerie and it didn't want to lith. Then I tried some old Portriga Rapid a friend had given me and---boom!

Another FUJI GA645. I have one with the FUJINON 60mm f/4 - my new one has the 45mm f/4 lens.
Someone called them `interstellar space junk´ … I can highly recommend them - great for traveling and hiking.

I got a Mod54 developing thingy for sheet film, so tomorrow I think I'll go out and expose some sheets. I also got the book "Famouz" by Anton Corbijn, which is great, lots of incredible photographs, and I believe quite a few lith prints are in there as well.

Minolta X-700 with a 35-70 Minolta zoom, purchased from Sirius Glass. It's in even better shape than he said it would be. Feels like new! I've been looking for a good zoom in this range and it was a lot of fun to use Christmas day and after.

No photo stuff, but I did get a bicycle trainer so I can ride when the weather's cold or too nasty to ride. Should help keep me in shape so I can continue to take photos!

Add to my list of goodies a copy of Steve McCurry's The Iconic Photographs, courtesy of a Chapter's giftcard. Wow! Simultaneously humbling and inspiring...

An EOS 1N and a Tamron 24-135 SP just came through the front door, along with a couple of 77mm filters for the RB67 and a Tamron Adaptall 2 adapter for the Contax MM mount.
