Just at the stage of taking photography a bit more seriously than snapping, and have invested in a DSLR. As a schoolboy I was quite into the art as my school had a club and a darkroom in which I had the chance to develop my own prints. A fairly ancient enlarger of my fathers also enabled me to turn my bedroom into a darkroom, producing varying results!
