stage 1; the right enlarger

2005, Ampang- Opted for an affordable Seagull condenser enlarger which could handle 120 format. But it was out of stock for almost a year and I almost gave up. Acquired an old 1971 4x5” German Durst colour head enlarger instead from my photography lecturer. Eventually by the start of 2006, I had a basic operational darkroom. Total expenditure breached my initial budget by 300%, but the results were very satisfying. The darkroom is semi permanent only, as it is also my bedroom.
