On that one, it took me until about a year ago to go to the dark side. I still like film for some (read: many) applications. But the convenience of the digital sadly wins out much of the time.

With my meager photography skills, I could never learn on film. I also like how forgiving digital is, especially since I started shooting raw.

Great story, MCP, *sniff* so sadly sweet. You will always have that memory to cherish and a wonderful story to share.

Thanks Wazzup!

I just remembered exactly when it was during the song that I lost it.

It was just before the line "No matter how your heart is grieving." was coming up.

I just completely came unglued.

Someday I'll tell you guys the story of my experience at DTD that happened on the trip that was 10 days after Grandma passed.

We'll all need kleenex for that one.

Now there you have my secret. I never, ever shoot in JPG. It's so much easier to just add a little too much exposure in the camera, knowing I can always fix it later. I love RAW.

One of the main reasons I went digital was the fact that my passion for "darkroom" work is much easier when I don't hane to have a darkroom to do it in. In fact I enjoyed doing a lot of darkroom work sitting in may campsite at WDW last Oct. :D:

Of course the fact that I never have to pay for film or processing ever again shure didn't hurt.
