Hello,

I'm a long time film photographer from back to the early 1960's up to the present. I use a mix of analog & digital formats, from 35mm through 8x10 on film, and u4/3rd's, APS-C, and full-frame with digital (starting back in 2003). I have a full wet darkroom, handling all the film sizes including 8x10, and can wet-print up to 20x24. Currently using a pair of Epson V800 and V850 scanners for digital printing from 5x7 and 8x10 negatives. Final output from there goes to a pair of Canon Pro-100 printers. I'm looking to add a larger format Canon or Epson printer to the workflow. After working pretty much non-stop for the past 58 years (warfighter, engineer, and finally a high school teacher & university professor), I'm fully retired and planning to spent the rest of the time I have left with family and friends, here and across the "ponds"...:)

BTW: Me shooting an EOS-1n film camera of UP Big Boy 4014 transiting the Black Rock Desert (Northern Nevada)

Regards,

Edd

What a backdrop, welcome from stormy Yorkshire
Thank you Martin, and yes it was surreal out there. The road is made up of basalt and obsidian shards, mixed with coarse gravel. My son drove us out in an M-B ML550, with tire pressures reduced to 15 PSI, and speed limited to less than 20 MPH, for nearly 40 miles once we got off of a paved road. When we got to the site he picked out, it was a 3 mile walk through the desert with a lot of gear, but it was so worth it... Also, no services nor cell phone coverage, nearest town 96 miles away!

BTW: My Mom was born in Manchester, and emigrated with her family to Rhode Island in 1916, and have cousins still living in Wales at this time.

Regards,

Edd
