The whole team is together again and in person with a special darkroom episode. We generally talk about gear, films, paper and other technical things. In this episode, we’re talking about our photography, what makes a good photo and the images we brought into print using a traditional darkroom! While we are all gearheads, we all have passions for different types and styles of photography. We apologise for the audio quality of this one. We were recording in the darkroom, and there were some pops and interference where the mic cables crossed with electrical ones.
Community Darkrooms Mentioned:

In 2024 and more recently in January Hurricanes and Wildfires directly affected tens of thousands of Americans; among them, we’re sure are listeners of this podcast and members of the film podcasting community—the floods in North Carolina and, more recently, the fires in California. The fires and floods have destroyed thousands of homes, including that of Gabe Sachs, one of the hosts of the smash-hit podcast I Dream of Cameras.
