Re: Introducing myself

Hello Phillip,
I am one with the end of the summer chaos like starting back to teaching, last
minute vacation, and a parent in and out of the hospital all at once.

So that said, Welcome to the list! There are many talented people on this
list and very much willing to share.

I took a quick look at your website and and enjoyed the color pinholes. I
enjoy a Holga too and have a regular Holga, one converted to pinhole, and one
converted to zone plate. Look forward to your new portrait work.

Take Care, 
Chuck
