Where to start?

I have been shooting photographs for many years; since I was a boy, in fact. I started with a Brownie 127. A family friend, up the street, had a darkroom in his house. He helped process my early mistakes! Thanks Mr Harrison! As my Dad taught my sister to ride a bike [c1970], I was there to record it on film. Note the fog in 70's Liverpool.

My second camera was a gift from my uncle David. As he moved to an SLR, he gave me a Hanimex rangefinder camera. I can thank him for really getting me into photography. I played with color film and lab processing, while I learned to process and print my own pictures. A neighbor taught me how to do all the black and white darkroom stuff.
