Much of my development as a photographer I'd attribute to non-stop 
documenting of day-to-day activity throughout high school.  I became 
comfortable with my camera, my metering, film and its limits, depth of 
field, just how slow a shutter speed I could get away with hand-holding, 
and so on.  I still think that the best way to become a good 
photographer is to shoot a lot of film and look at the results.
