    there is something to be said about getting your hands dirty with the whole process of actually developing film with chemicals. it just feels a bit more accomplished... although in actuality, the average viewer can't tell the damn difference.

    i now only shoot digital (amateur of course) because of the ease of printing and the ridiculous amount of cheap printing websites out there. plus, i no longer have access or personal space to use a darkroom/lab.

    i still miss it though. there is something very satisfying about creating a nice print sans photoshop.

    • beautiful , thats what i thought; even for the romantic idea that this would make me a more pure photographerMachuse
    • Darkroom printing is still such a rewarding (and frustrating) experience, something alot of people don't appreciate anymore.Tungsten
    • totally agree tungsten. it's almost like letterpress. you just can't replicate it unless you are using the equipment.lvl_13
