Hello there,
I'm new to artselector. I'm based in Salford, Lancs, and thought I'd make this my first venture on this site. I'm struggling a little bit though, some things are a bit confusing on here, any handy hints?
best wishes
Rachael

Hello, it is nice to have a fellow Northerner around these parts :D I'm based in Cumbria though I travel through to Preston/Manchester quite a bit.
I struggled initially to get set up and going on here. I think I have just about got to grips with it - so if you have any specific questions don't be afraid to ask! In terms of hints I would definitely recommend being active as possible through the blogs, reviews and message boards. There are some very interesting and friendly people so it is worth getting involved.

Rachael: Thank you! I like your work too - I love it when people come up with really inventive drawings and drawing techniques like you do.
Glinka: Hello! Again - if you need a hand working anything out just give me a shout. Your work is pretty amazing - the colours are lovely, really emotive. If you don't mind me asking do you use polaroids and outdated film for that effect?

Glinka, your work is stunning, infact its the most interesting photography work i have seen in a very long time. I adore the colours in the images, beautiful. do you mind if i make a post about your work on my blog?

Thanks for the feedback! much appreciated.
I used a polaroid SX-70 camera and Artistic Z film. It's not out of date film but it does produce some really beautiful clours!
Rachael: i don't mind at all if you mention my work, I'm only all too glad that you like it!
