I'm an LF newbie AND in CT. Often lost, often overwhelmed. But this weekend I am out of state and cannot make it. Darned. Finely hear about locals and I miss out.

Its indeed a weekend very well spend. Thanks Steve for hosting this wonderful event. I learned a lot from Bob Carnie and also he showed me how to become a better printer by following rules and good working habits, of course a big darkroom like Steve's helps. I ordered some lith printing stuff, can't wait to get it started.

Also I got to know a lot of new friends and of course re-acquainted with some old friends too.

The print sharing was inspiring with the help of Paul's fine bourbon mix and some single malt whiskey. The food was great, the chat was great, I'm so happy to spend such a wonderful weekend with a collective group of photographers.
