For all you old cave photographers out there: According to the NYT,
the last Kodachrome processing machine in the world was shut down for
good yesterday.

Film Rescue International <http://www.filmrescue.com/> - (according to
Wikipedia) can still process your Kodachrome - but the process only creates
a black and white image.

That would be somewhat pointless for Kodachrome!

It is my understanding that Kodachrome has been put to rest not just because
demand has been reduced to nearly nothing, but because Kodak has decided to
cease production of the chemicals necessary to process the film. The few
remaining processing facilities were willing to provide service but could not
do so without the necessary chemicals.
Who among us would set aside their digital camera and return to film?

There are some shots I've taken of high mountains that I'd love to take again
with a film camera because I couldn't quite get it right with digital. However,
the longer I put it off the better digital cameras seem to get...
Cheers,
Stefan

Surely, someone somewhere has done a chemical analysis on Kodak's
formula--or it's otherwise a matter of record. In any case I bet the
chemicals could be reproduced if someone just had to have um. Still,
my digital camera serves me fine for the sort of record shots and
occasional artsy-fartsy photos I've traditionally taken even though
it's not as easy to use.

Hi there!
That's Kodachrome! (I don't actually miss it all that much). That's
Erin in McCarty cave, about 8 years ago.
My flickr stream (http://www.flickr.com/photos/cvreeland/) certainly
isn't a secret.
I wish there were some recent cave photos up there but, work, work,
work.

There are 3 or 4 cavers posting photos of Texas caves. Here is an

One of these cavers has a very nice section in his photos specifically
about Texas caves.
I am not posting the link to that. He can if he wishes to.
