    Hi from Geelong Australia

    I should have done this a while back as I have been lurking here for some time. My name's Michael and I live in Geelong, Australia. I have just lashed out and ordered a new Tachihara 8x10 triple extension from Jeff at Badger Graphics and now have to wait 45 days because he just sold the last one on Saturday.
    I noticed that there is another person who goes by the name of "Whale" who also lives in Geelong, it would be good to catch up, because I thought I was the only large fomat user in Geelong.
    I've learnt a lot from reading what you have posted and would like to thank you all. Quite a bit of it I've passed on to the photography teachers at the tertiary institution I work at. I hope you don't mind, but I like to keep the students informed of anything that might help them.
    Cheers
    Mike

    Hi Michael, and welcome from a bit further around Port Phillip Bay (not that you can see it from my house deep in the suburbs....). I'm a 4x5 user just getting into 8x10 following a deal I couldn't resist on a Cambo SC.
    regards,
    Paul

    Hi Michael,

    Welcome... from Vancouver, BC in Canada.

    Just make sure that Jeff doesn't send your camera double-boxed in an apple crate! LOL... Your mates in Customs will quarantine it for a couple of weeks!

    Have fun with the Tachihara... it's a very nice camera!

    Cheers
    Life in the fast lane!

    G'day wyno,

    Great to see you around here. I'm jealous- a Tachi 10x8! Excellent.

    Cheers,

    And glad to see you around as well. When are you going to post images of your new gallery?

    Hmmm, I suppose I could post some shots, but I haven't completely finished fitting it out. I need to install another four free-standing display panels before I consider the gallery to be "finished". We are open though and selling pictures, and they are the main things.

    Cheers,
    Graeme
