Merry Chrismas, Tony, I hope you and your family have a lovely Chrismas and a happy new year, this year has been a difficult one so here's looking to the future.
Season's Greetings to you there, youngster. Of course, to your loved ones as well. Stay safe, stay healthy and God Bless. Very much appreciate your thinking of me. Tony. :)))
Honestly no I have not heard. Looks like it has been a month now, it would seem he may not be in a place where he is able to go out shooting and posting.
Greg, sorry for the weird message, I have run fowl of cannon forums 420 character limit so I have had to split the message into 6 parts, start at the bottom and read up.
I have acquired 4 photo enlargers and most of the necessary darkroom equipment, I have 3 students who have darkroom experience and are interested in film.and some of the customers at Vinnies come in and see me about photography issues they have come to purchase secondhand gear from me and see what I am doing.I shall upgrade next year after my darkroom is done.
I am at this moment building a darkroom under my house.It is built out of recycled timber for the Tip shop.It is coming along slowly but I am getting there. Time is a issue at the moment as my volunteer hours at Vinnies takes up most of the week due to covid and people on holiday.
and we must go on. If I need something new I save up and purchase it.. This in itself give me more satisfaction than having new gear. I am heading in the opposite direction to new gear and more in the way of film and darkroom development.
Greg due to 420 character limit I shall split up this message, . Financially I am on a crappy disability pension My aorta split and only 1 in 10 survive. I was in a comma for a month which left me with nerve damage down my back and leg, limiting to what I can do. Shit happens
Greg,I have been there and done that, after two ex-wives, you are left with very little, it is very hard to rebuild yourself financially, I have kept myself out of debt with only a house payment to contend with. All my gear is second hand and I have rebuilt or made myself, the advantage of a trade
Johnsey, it may be worth having a look at why, when using Edge and Chrome to access Canon Forum, we can't see posted images but there is no issues when using Firefox.
