My interest in black and white photography dates back to the time when color film was not accessible to the photography hobbyist. I never lost interest but it was only after retiring that I launched into improving my skills. This included learning darkroom processes and recently learning the art of lith printing, as well as work with Polaroid transfer processes. While I am toying with using a digital camera, my first love will always be the type of results I achieve with "wet chemistry" processes.
