A girl .. a woman of half my age, told me the other day that "Film is Dead". Just like that. Hard F. Hard D.
So I bought a role of film. I developed it. Scanned it. Uploaded it to an imaging tool. Post processed it. Downloaded it back to my computer. And here it is.
The process was not nearly as instantaneously satisfying as digital, but just to smell the developer and to feel my skin break out in itchy red bumps as a subtle reaction to the photo chemicals makes it totally worth it.
Film (hard F) is Not (hard N) Dead.
