Great stuff. I love digital photography. I don't buy for a second that anything is sacrificed in digital photography. The image is what we make of it. I believe things like "soul", "heart", "essence" and other such intangibles come from the photographer, not the gear.
And yet, I just bought another batch of chemicals after not processing my own film for 6 or 7 years. Why? Nostalgia is part of it. Also, I like the process. I also like my film cameras and hate to see them collecting dust. I've bought some TMax and some Ilford Pan F Plus and some Neopan Acros. Looking forward to messing around with film again.
Like you, I will probably be using film in low pressure situations. If I get a shot, great; if not, no big deal. I expect my success rate per shutter click to be quite low and the expense per keeper to be quite high. I doubt any keepers I get will rival any of my digital keepers. But I still like it. No justification required.
If I get results as good as yours I will be thrilled!
