Thanks for the "likes."
It is very interesting to me, to go back to film. I was shooting sports for years, primarily, and digital there is THE way to go. But for more composed or just slower imaging, I am really enjoying film. I am not going to say it is better, but it is more analog. Much like records vs CDs/streaming music. They sound different, and to each his or her own, but same deal. Sometimes, there is just something about that record or that film shot that you see that you like (and digital, too). I shoot and enjoy both (and listen to both).
That said, w film there is a little delayed gratification (or sometime, not so gratifying findings) that is both exciting (like opening up a present) and also stimulating.
In any case, I am enjoying my foray into film. Going to Italy in a month and though I am not going to take my MF gear (which yo can get for a song, BTW), I am going to take as a backup to my Sony A7ii a Leica CL with a few small lenses (esp the M rokkor 40/2). When I get home, which images will I prefer?
Thanks for tolerating my posts.
P.S. That one in the car - my youngest - is gone off to college (preseason, actually), now. The elder heads out in 2 weeks. Then we are officially empty nesters (hence Italy, a years' delayed anniversary). I never would've thought.... For those of you with young ones, please enjoy every moment. Take note of the little things. Take pictures. It is what we all likely want, for them to become independent and confident and to see them happy, but if anyone says it doesn't hurt when they leave, they're crazy. Love your kids.
