I only ever shoot B&W. Colour shooting is rare and usually under duress and then digital!

Process my own film, using either the two bath process (Diafine) or stand/semi-stand method with ATM49, APH09 or Rodinal

All digital images are shot in RAW format.

One of digital photography's biggest challenges is that you're quickly drowning in digital images. Peter Krogh's The DAM Book is so far the only book to explain digital asset management and shows how the serious photographer can turn all that data from a problem into an advantage. If you want a guide to good practice, this is it.
