Hi all, I have just joined up here. I have been taking photographs since I was about 13, but have only just recently gotten back into it.
I have been shooting digital images for the last 3 years, mostly to help sell fountain pens as part of my business, but I soon realized that snapshots would not sell as well as good images.
About a year ago I dusted off my Zenit TTL which I have had since I was a youngster, and fired a couple of rolls through it. I got hooked on black and white film as it is much better than what I can do digitally, at least with B&W.
As payment for some pen repairs, a client of mine gave me a near mint Pentax Spotmatic 2, which I use constantly now. Another friend loaned me his Bronica GS-1 which I have been having a blast with.
I just started developing my own film last weekend, and am loving it.
Cheers,
Sean
