Out from the dark....

Burham Overy Staithe, Norfolk

It's strange but i miss my darkroom and not for photographic reasons either. I do all of my work via my computer because its easier and you have far greater control over your images than you ever did with chemical processes. No.. I miss the darkroom because it was a refuge from the world; a place to lock the door and embrace your photography without distraction.

I actually got hooked on photography at school because of the darkroom processing rather than the actual taking of images. I just loved the seclusion and I can still remember my first print coming through in the developing dish.......ahhh.......happy days.
