I never had the chance to deal with color film. I loved doing b&w though.

We did black and white, and tried color, but it’s a lot harder to get right. I do admit I miss being in a darkroom, it has a magical quality to it (my Dad did his own darkroom work when I was a kid, later when I got married my husband and I both dabbled, we had a home darkroom). But, I so enjoy my digital and photoshop.

It’s pretty easy to develop E-6 film at home. The only tricky part is maintaining consistent temperatures.

It’s been many years since I used Kodachrome but still have trays and trays of the slides.

Wow! Just looked at some of his B&W work. No doubt he has been influenced by Ansel Adams.

Very nice.
I had an uncle who used a Rolleiflex in the 50’s - 60’s and had tons of slides from around the world, wish I had them now.

No doubt he has been influenced by Ansel Adams.That was my exact thought when I first saw some of his work, he's really quite good.
