Cool I'm in... - 12-10-2008, 07:37 AM


Since I can practically walk over there. I am planning to bring a few show and tell things relating to darkroom work in an apartment.

If I get my nerve up and find my Round To It, I may even bring a photograph. Or 3.

Shiner? Look at my avatar!

I'll be there and I may well have a few of my bathroom-produced prints with me... although I have only had 1 session with my "new" enlarger (thanks, Wayne!) - - for the past 2 years it has just been contact printing of 4x5s.

I welcome comments on any picture I post... Thanks.

I don't know how many of you are members of apug (www.apug.org) but there is a thread there called "darkroom portraits".

http://www.apug.org/forums/forum43/1...portraits.html

I think you can view it as a "guest". It's up to 66 or so pages. (I'm on page 16). Lots of pictures of elaborate darkrooms and some in tiny bathrooms, and everything in between. The thread has been going for 4 years now!

Enjoy!

Thanks David. I guess I need to take a picture of my darkroom setup. Trouble is, I can't read my meter by safelight!

How will we know you?????????????????????

I'm old. How's that?

I'll carry a Leica. And a box of Jobo tanks. Good enough?

I suppose I could set up a view camera on a tripod. That would attract attention.

I was going to say that we will probably stand out like sore thumbs... but Wayne's answer was much more useful... Wayne's old and I'm bald.
