Title: Dark-eyed Junco
Post by: ned on May 22, 2014, 12:34:52 am

Recently sold almost all of my digital gear for film stuff. Can't image I'll be taking any more wild life shots in the near future. On to other things.

I've always liked the Junco's, just love the earth tone colors.

If I understand...you sold your digital to go back to film?

I am intrigued since I use both formats.

Most of it is gone now. Another month or so and the rest should be sold off. I'll keep a point and shoot for when is absolutely necessary.

In the last couple of years I took several darkroom classes to learn the process. One thing I did learn is I don't care for wet printing. So I bought a jobo, found a leafscan 45 with a wet mounting plate and have been enjoying the slow process of shooting, metering and processing. I just feel like it satisfies my need to work with my hands.

That's the beauty of photography, there are endless possibility's.
