I have been reading UHH Digest for some time and found the content interesting and diversified, so now decided to jump in with both feet!
Started making contact prints from 4x5 negs found in my grandmother's attic in the 60s and went as far as a Mamaya C330 in late 60s before dwindling to 35mm in the mid 70s. Did lots of B&W processing and printing but never got to colour processing at home.
Got into digital early on doing a lot of photos of fine art (you really learn a lot doing that in natural light!) and found Nikon's ergonomics better for me than Canon's SLRs. After a wrist injury, started using a D5500 although I kept my D90. I still work occasionally with a 645 and 3 lenses, but not doing my own processing, so I find the cost high using others to process and digitize.
Covid self-isolation has me going through 12 years of digital images and honing my post-processing skills. Mostly using Capture NX and ON1, but have CS6 suite and CC photographer's subscription. I find PS sometimes does better building panos than ON1, but ON1 suits my workflow better at the moment. Maybe the recent upgrades across the Adobe product will change my preferences, who knows?
Now pondering mirrorless, but in a holding pattern due to the cost factors.
Well, that was a lot for an intro - hope to share some shots (images, photographs, pictures, pixels?) with you soon!

Welcome to UHH George, glad you joined us. I still have my old 35mm Nikon FTN and Nikkomat cameras, mid 70's vintage.
Have fun, learn and enjoy the forum.
