Greetings!
i know that this is maybe not the best category to put this thread,but here it is:
recently i moved to Spain(Barcelona)and was wondering if you know someone around in Spain an "old" large format photographer,or a photographer,who cant work cause health issues,or any issues?
i just want to be around my kind of people,and help them in their work,(carry equipment on the field,help in the darkroom,whatever..)
Please!if you know someone located around,let me know!would LOVE to meet someone with "the knowledge",and just be around,look/help them work..
old people need/deserve help,and im willing to help,if there is someone...
i think it could be great for both of us:wink:
Thanks for Your time!
Good Light Everyone!

Good day Monk,

First of all, welcome to Spain (a bit shaked these days).

I cannot give a very useful information, as I do not live near Barcelona at all, but I am leaving a link to a Spanish large format forum. They may help you.

The link is:

www.granformato.eu

There's an APUG member and LF user Ramiro who lives near Barcelona, I met up with him 4 or 5 years ago but he's not been online here for nearly a year.

Good light. I like that. As I get older, the cameras get smaller. Stick around long enough on this earth and you learn a little.

Monk, I don't know anyone in Spain, but you may want to try to contact Nana Sousa Dias near Lisbon, Portugal, as he may know some in Spain - worth a try. Here is a link to his info on the Large Format Photography Forum. You may need to register (free) to be a member of that forum (not a bad idea anyway) so you can send him an email. He only posts there occasionally. Click on the "About Me" tab in the link to learn more about him; he does excellent work.
Thank You silveror0!
indeed,him work is Good!:smile:wrote him on LFPF,hope he answers..
Appreciate Your help!
Cheers!
