[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 148143, member: 13090"] That makes two of us. I've worked in a dark room before. I've mixed chemicals and developed negatives; I've burned and dodged and enlarged and printed and you name it. Yes there's a lot you can learn from all that manual processing, it does make photography far more... I don't know the word I'm looking for... more [I]visceral[/I] I suppose. But in my opinion, Behind-the-Counter dude is bordering on delusional. What did we "give up" by going to digital over film? A lot of effort and expense and smelly chemicals. Ask Behind-the-Counter dude to remove an annoying pole jutting out from behind a subjects head as if it was never there on a 35mm negative. What takes hours or days to do in a darkroom, you now do in minutes if not seconds, behind your PC. [/QUOTE]
