Well, it’s a new year and I think I’m going to force my self to start shooting more with the film cameras I have. Last year I bought a Belair X 6×12 Medium Format camera to use on some of my road trips last year and I think I may have shot 3 rolls through it. That’s not much considering you only get 4 exposure per roll of film.

So, with that being said… this year I’ll be doing 12, month long challenges that involve shooting film. Each month will have a different theme and while my goal is to post one picture a month, I hope to come up with more than that that I feel are worthy of sharing here.

Of course my darkroom has been used pretty much as a storage room for the past several years and as you can see from today’s video clip, I’ve got to do some cleaning and re-arranging so I can start using it again. Not sure that the dead of winter is the best time to be starting this endeavor as some of the stuff stored here will have to be moved to my workshop. But, as friend Fred Jones says, “it is what it is.”
