Back then there was nothing better than being in a darkroom with a college girl, a six pack of beer and the Beatle's White album.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30486218.post-19184261675620327412009-03-12T11:07:00.000-04:002009-03-12T11:07:00.000-04:00We called that bulk loading here.

I was the dark room rat - work grant student in college who loaded a lot of those 35mm cheap plastic cassettes ordered from the back of Popular and Modern Photography magazines. Oh, man. All that time spent in the darkroom learning Ektachrome, Cibachrome...all for nothing. All gone. Sniff, I'm getting misty.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30486218.post-30404863067027750632009-03-12T10:50:00.000-04:002009-03-12T10:50:00.000-04:00Tintin: You're taking me down memory lane.

I brought about a million of these rolls with me from Australia to the States and they are all still sitting in my fridge. My prints are also in those red Agfa boxes.
