Greetings from Vancouver Island

Hi, I'm Evan Leeson. Ino photography for nearly fifty years now. Wow. Time flies. I learned on a Pentax K-1000 and still shoot one today. I just loaded another roll of Ilford B&W 400. I also shoot an old Kx that has been through the wars. Even run over by a car. Keeps on ticking. I like Macro, aerial, landscape. I love shallow DOF. You can see my images on flickr, 500px, Getty, Instagram and elsewhere. Currently building a commercial site on Picfair.

Cheers.

Welcome Evan. There's a friendly bunch here and by the sound of it you'll be giving at least as much as you are taking from the font of knowledge.

I used to sail past VI back in the early eighties and had friends in Campbell River and a few other places (we talked on the CB radios). Thirty something years on and my brother now resides in Duncan.

Hi folks...Since our film community is small here, I thought it would be a great idea to have a thread on images that show the beauty of film...Does it have to be a Pentax? ''No'', lets make it about photography...I and others, I am sure, would like to see what different films put out, so film type would be a help if you know. Now lets see those film shots.
