What's on??

Hey friends, I was just wondering what is coming up in the near future, what's happening? Is Lens Life all that's on the cards for the next little bit?

In potentially more exciting news, I got a real camera. Nikon D60, I'd love to see y'all at something and ask some stuff (like what bits and pieces I should get next) - oh and also, upon Raymonds recommendation, i've got one of those ridiculous rocket air blower things (but a diddy one).

Snap you soon!

Where's the uploading?

As a new member and a relative youth to the world of photography, I think it would be awesome if people posted up some photos from the events, such as the Royal Easter Show or coming Flugtag. That way, we babies can be inspired / learn. Plus it would be good to see more photos up and comments going.

Can someone important make this happen?

Flickr group created!

Hi all,

Following on from the discussion during the AGM, I've created a new Flickr group! See http://www.flickr.com/groups/unswphotoclub/

At the moment it's listed as public, invite only to mirror the way this site is set up (I understand if you want to join it gives you a message box to message an admin - me at the moment - who can then provide you with an invite. Let me know if this isn't the case!). We can change this at any time though!

So ... if you've got a Flickr account, please join! :-D

Black and White development chemicals/service

Hi everyone,

I've recently gotten chemicals to develop B&W film at home. As anyone who has done this can testify, these chemicals come in massive amounts that I cannot forsee myself using up before expiry.

As such, I'll be offering usage of my equipment and chemicals for nominal rates to cover my costs:

  • $5/roll - self-processed
  • $10/roll - processed for you

I'm currently using Kodak D76 developer.

Examples of the last roll I developed : Sydney in Winter 2007 gallery
