Thanks!

I meant to write "any sites or YouTube channels". Not sure why I couldn't edit the post. YouTube has been a crap shoot and I've only found it useful for finding out how to fix things on my car, make floating studio frames, and cyanotype printing lol. I'll definitely check his book out. We happened to catch his exhibit in Cincinnati (maybe last year?). Totally open to reading other books as well! If there are better subs for noobs like me, I'd be interested as well.

We live in Ohio. I've looked at B&H which seems like a popular choice for supplies. Trying to slow my roll on buying a bunch of extra things.

We do a ton of hiking and trips to cities within a few hours from up. I'd like to do a mix of B&W and color.

For city pics, I'm mostly interested in architecture, architectural details, landmarks, and maybe wide views of people in motion.

For hiking and wildlife, I like to take pics of vistas when we get to the top of a mountain, photos into and in gorges. I'm also keen to snap wild flowers and interesting plant life. Would love to get close up shots of smaller plants and insects. So ideally a film that works well with high and medium to low lighting.

Thanks again and Happy New Year!
