Think of it as like climbing Everest for the sedentary urban class.
I like to think in terms of being in one's right mind or getting
there
open-mindedness should come before such adventurism
I understand your simile regarding being in one's right
mind...............but I am left handed. so I must be in my right
mind.
I'm mostly ambidextrous ... My mind can't remember which way to go.
I did color chemistry in my home darkroom once upon a time. After
spending what for me was an honest fortune and several months' effort,
I realized that I could have had better prints by dropping the film at
the corner drugstore and paying a pittance. And had them tomorrow.
Digital capture, image processing and printing does far better than
the corner drugstore.
I'm in it for the photographs, not the journey of processing! ;-)
An Everest in itself for some of us.......
A small lab for a man but a huge mess for mankind :]
Now you're mexing your mitophores.
mitaphores. stupid fingers.
