    Cheers from Halifax, Nova Scotia!

    Hello everyone,
    I've been landing on this forum every time I search for something related to my new 4x5 camera, film, etc. It made sense to join and get to know the community. So here I am :-)

    Cheers!

    Hello

    14 years ago I flew from Chicago to Halifax and bought a restored VW BAY BUS Camper

    Got bad gas outside Montréal

    Shipped it home

    It was so nice I sold it!

    Welcome!

    Welcome, Pedro-Pierre. Glad you have decided to join. You will find here an exceptionally knowledgeable community for your large format (and more broadly photographic journey. Are you just starting in film? Have you been a photographer for longer prior to this? Do you work in both B&W and color? What kind of subjects attract you? I, for one, would be interested to know.

    That's an interesting part of the world.
    I once went touring around there on webcams and Google Streetview !

    Thanks Philip!

    I shot a bit of everything but tend to do a lot of B&W. However, since I started to shoot film again, colour has been on rotation more often. There's a link to my portfolio in my profile, I haven't updated it lately so there's none of the 4x5.
    I've had a camera since I was 15, but only in 2008, in my forties, I take it seriously. Before that, it was family snapshots :-( I only did digital photography until two years ago when I decided to take up film again. I develop B&W and colour myself, but I don't enlarge to paper. I have a nice printer that can print up to 17"x45".

    Thanks, Tin!

    I arrived in Halifax 13 years ago :-)
    There are so many VW campers in this province. It's nuts.

    Coincidentally, from tonight's Super Bowl (Extended Cut). Super Bowl commercials have "extended cuts" now?
