Good morning Seamus! You do remember my name is Karen right? LOL ECF lets you use tinypics to upload photos. You do not have to have a account. You just upload your photos and can then post on here. Of course they do not stay on the site, but it is good for those who do not want an account. If you decide to open an account, you will be sent to Photobucket. So guess they are linked?

Ooooh Christina, me too! You ought to see the focal beads that I picked up at the ISGB annual meeting last month. I'm working on a kumihimo beaded rope for a special bead right now.
Me too. I did photography for many years. Still miss those hours I spent in the darkroom and still love my old Nikon F2.
Mlinky, I love my Nikons! But I did make the switch as I always hated the darkroom and now I couldn't be any happier with Photography, except for if somebody maybe gave me a Hassleblad with a 30MB digital back.
Oh well guess facebook won't let me trick them into letting me use my photos to post here on the ECF. There's got to be a way to find those image codes for facey's book. If I could do that I'd be sooooo happy.

Oops, gotta go out for dinner, I mean breakfast.
I have a few more REO shots to post as the day goes by. I hope you guys don't mind that I'll be doing sort of an opposite of what you guys do, hundreds of snaps of my one little REO as it travels around the backyard with me instead of hundreds of shots of the hundreds of REOs you guys post.

The time in the darkroom was relaxing and meditative for me. I always wanted a Hasselblad, but couldn't afford it. I still miss my old Mamiya C220, which I sold.
my first camera was an F2. I bought it used in 1980 for $500. It had a photomic head. The lenses were a 24 2.8, 50 1.8 and a 105 2.5. I used that camera for years then traded it in for a Canon T90 which I also loved. I sold my Canon T90 on Ebay with a ton of lenses for $1000. If I had sold it a year earlier I would have doubled my price. Digital was taking over and the price of film cameras in general were dropping fast.
I do not miss the darkroom at all. I spent a year working full time in a custom b&w lab and had a darkroom in my basement so many hours were spent with the red light on. I did b&w there and color using Ilfochrome (Cibachrome) making 16x20s from 4x5 Velvia Chromes from my 4x5 field camera. I used the field camera with Velvia for about 3 years for my personal work. Now I am exclusively digital but I still have my wood field camera. I won't ever get rid of that. It was hand built and its walnut..a Zone 6 model. My daughter can put it on the mantle when I am long gone and tell my grandkids or great grandkids that that was grandpa's camera.
