Film. I thought it would be so much easier to learn. Instead, it's been challenging. It's been frustrating. It's been humbling. I can't tell you how many times I've walked into Robert's Imaging downtown to have one of the technicians shake his head no....no dice...nothing on the roll....zip...nada. I hang my head. I gather my ego up from the floor. I buy two more rolls of film. And I walk out the door committed to trying again. I've nearly given up on my mother's Pentax a hundred times...or rather, I've nearly given up on myself. Thanks to advice and patience from good friends, I think maybe I'm getting the hang of it...maybe. I picked up my first decent roll yesterday. This was the first image that popped up....my son smiling. I'm in love, instantly.
beautiful! I'm so glad this roll turned out for you. :)
