This is my friend – Adrian Ensor, darkroom master printer and fine art photographer.
I remember that day when we met in Adrian’s house, office and a darkroom. I was trying to do my best when I was photographing him. I think Adrian was not used to being photographed – he usually was on the other side of the lens!
I like the result. I’ve used only 2 rolls of film for this session as atmosphere was great and I knew that I had it.
Some time ago I wrote a post about building my new darkroom. It turned out that Adrian has gifted me the whole darkroom and not only, as a few days later he called me again, and now I have a professional light box of a size of a ….single bed! 🙂
This light box is very comfortable tool that has many useful purposes. Can be used for assessing your negatives, it is also a great 'table' to laid out pictures an start working on their composition.

Here it is me and Adrian after our photographic session. Picture is a little out of focus, but it shows that we had a great fun working together.
