B/W

I miss photography. I have a little digital point & shoot, but it’s not the same.

In the process of moving, J found a used roll of black & white film that hadn’t been developed. No idea what’s on it. I’m going to have to go back to my old photo teacher & ask him to develop it for me (because I don’t want to spend $200 on a darkroom pass to do it myself). I haven’t been over there in years. Really miss the darkroom. And all the familiar quips you’d hear him make, like “there’s no smell like fixer in the morning” or “don’t judge a photo in the darkroom unless you intend to hang a show in there.”
But then life happens, and gets in the way, and I decided it was more important to spend time with family instead of the darkroom. Still, I miss it.
