It is strange, and errie at the same time. Up until a year ago, i had little difficulty in buying, developing and getting prints of B&W film.
Now its a 1 1/2 hour trip and more expensive, due to more gas, and higher rates by the "new guy". Digital P&s have been out long enough, that your 20 year old student, probably had one for his first school camera, as opposed to the K1000 etc most of us might have had. It the 24/7 instant information age, which i absolutly hate, and thats they way they want it. Take the dam shot, lets have a look and laugh at ourselves. Oh and BTW, i had my 6x7 out on a walk around on my way to the hunt camp for Thanksgiving weekend. Boy didi i get looks.:-) Dave Quoting Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Later that evening, I was talking to my brother.
