    Black and white is timeless and it's so much better when you can develop your own. A lot of folks are getting back into film now. I'll be out in the mountains this weekend shooting pictures for sure. :)

    You're right about that will711, I've never really spent much time with it, color is so much more forgiving.

    If you haven't already used Fujifilm Velvia 100f slide film with a polarizing filter for landscapes I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised.
