We seem to be under some form of attack, us film users. As James Bond said "Once is circumstance, twice is happenstance, three times is enemy action."


At least half the joy of photography for me is in the developing and printing of black and white images. Perhaps it's time to stockpile materials. Thank goodness I have a good selection of mechanical Leicas, Leicaflexes and Hasselblads and a decent darkroom setup to see me out.

Best wishes to all,

Noel
PS Leicaflex is such a lovely word in itself. We lost something when they dropped that name.
