End of 2006 and the beginning of 2007 I spent a lot of time in my darkroom this last weekend of the year. I had been too busy with other equally important aspects of my life since mid November to do any photographic work but I made sure that on the cusp I continued. In looking back I spent on average 25% of my free time working with a camera or an enlarger so I kept my hand in making up for lost time. 2006 was a pretty good year for me in this pursuit that I started in 2002. I also worked on many of my old negatives from the 70's, discovered a new toning technique, and added some 'new' equipment to my inventory.
