I was thinking today about how the photo industry is coming back around to using film, although it is more of a trend or hobby than a necessity in some cases. Some photographers, like me, began their love affair with photography first using film then spread their wings to digital. 

It has been ages since I last picked up my old film camera and I was truly looking forward to giving it a try again during our trip. I am by no means a pro when it comes to film and never have been. To be honest I don't always do what I am supposed to, I just shoot using what settings I think will look good depending on the given light... no light meter, so the end result in some photos did not meet my eager expectations... but then again, some amazed.

I think I would very much like to perfect my film skills again. There is just something so sweet about delayed gratification... and grain.
