That's my hope! Plus, there's something exciting about not knowing what exactly happened when you pressed the shutter button.

I think film is very important to learn, as you really are careful about f-stops and exposure and whatnot. More thinking before you shoot. Obviously digital is simpler, but I imagine you'll find getting a good shot with digital is easier after you spend some time with film.

Oh man, I am so not ready to develop my own film. Want to come down again and teach me how? But it has been kind of fun so far. I am not ready to stop this little experiment. So far, I've stuck with color - Portra and Ektar, just because they called out to me first. But I want to try many others. We'll see if my wallet can stand the strain!

Wow! Congratulations!!! Yes, film is decadent, risky, and magical. What a wonderful description! What film stock are you shooting with? If b&w, are you going to develop it yourself?

I remember developing my film in college in my kitchen sink (first I put it on the reels in a small closet), and hanging them to dry from wire hangers in the shower. I think that is how I feel in love with photography so much. That process was delicate and meditative and also full of anticipation!

Good luck, and please make digital scans so we can see them on the interwebs!

2012-04-18T02:27:48.402-07:00

I wonder if you could talk a little bit about how you choose which of your photos to convert to black and white- I always struggle with this! And also, what tools do you use to convert the images? I know there are about a million different ways to do about doing it, and I typically feel overwhelmed and can't choose which one to use so I just skip it... Excellent artistic ambition, I know!

I love all your posts about coffee! It's nice to connect with someone who loves and savors food like I do. Makes me feel like I'm sinking into a big down comforter. Mmmmm. Coffee. And comforters...

If I think the first one especially looks amazing in black and white. Did you use any split tone on it? It looks a bit bluish, and it fits this image perfectly.
