Hi all, my name is Frank and I have been into photography now for over 50 years. Starting out with a 'box-brownie' at school - Pentax S1a - Rollies and Mamiyas - etc into part time pro work having built myself a darkroom by knocking an outhouse and a coal shed into one at our first house after getting married in 1961.
Having graduated from 35mm, 6x6 and then 6x4.5 to digital, the processing is now so much easier but the old developing and printing process concentrated the mind on composition and presentation. Far too many now believe that becaue they can taka a picture witha digital camera they are now photographers. These forums should be places where we can all develop our skills together.
