    Though I am forever *grateful* that I had the chance to experience the anticipation when pulling those 120 rolls out of the tank after rinsing the fixer off, and the magic that never gets old, seeing images form in the tray of developer under a red light...

    Dang it. You made me miss my darkroom again, Fred.

    Just 25 years ago, I spent a lot of time in the darkroom. I have no regrets about that this has changed. From my point of view, digital photography has many advantages for amateurs like me.

    ...of course I kept all the negatives and slides. You never know.
