Greetings from the West Coast of Canada

Hi
My name is Ken and I have been playing around with photography for the last 40 years. I used to own a Pentax 35mm back in the good old days and used it for black and white photography because I had my own darkroom. Things changed, marriage, children, work.. the usual stuff. It is only lately that I have got things going again, thanks to the "digital" age. Now it is not a major undertaking to get you photos "developed" and it's basically the cost of equipment. I have been working up to getting a "pro" camera that is more in sync with what I want to do. I barely had my camera out of the box and was doing my first "professional" shoot for a International "Model A Ford" club.
This looks like the start of a very wonderful relationship.
Thanks to all and I know this site will be a bountiful source of knowledge and friendship which I hope to share.

Ken

Welcome Ken. We seem to have had a spike of BCrs on the forum lately which is great. Looking forward to seeing a few Model As

If you have you "A" across Highway 3, drop a line and stop for a cuppa in Sparwood. You can even take a snap of your "A" near the world's biggest truck.
