Thanks for the welcome! Yes, I'm gneissgirl on f295, and already
doing my best to add carbon printing to the list of alt processes
represented there! As you can see from my recent posting there, I'm
very excited with my first print(s), even though it's a bit raggedy
around the edges. Still, I thought it wasn't bad for a first try, and
basically doing it from a book... The process really seems magical.
That's why I was so pleased to find this forum. I think pinhole
photography and carbon printing are a natural pair.
I am aware of Santa Fe's pinhole photography "reputation", but hadn't
heard about Camp Obscura (love that name!) Thanks for the link! Man,
that looks fabulous! There's a section on f295 for posting this kind
of event/organization (even though it looks kinda late for this
year). Still, I'll pass the word just to let people know about it!
Thanks again-- I'll be keeping in touch!
Mary
