Hello from across the pond

Post by Riverman » Thu Feb 03, 2011 3:29 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Hello from the DC Metro area. I'm from the UK and have been out here for the last year or so but will be coming home later this year. Shooting 4x5 and about to dabble a bit in 5x7. Mostly colour neg but a bit of black and white too. Film is so much more expensive in the UK I'm dreading coming back! Out here I've even been able to get a box of 5x7 Portra 160 to shoot this year.

The LF 'scene' is pretty big out here in the US but I get the sense from this board that there is a lot of LF photography going on in the UK too which is great stuff. Let's keep film alive!

Attached are some links to my 4x5 explorations of DC and Baltimore.

Welcome aboard! The colour shots in particular are great.
