Back to Photography

It's been sometime since I left film photography and it felt really good to relinquish my passion for this hobby with my purchase of a Digital SLR, the NIKON D700. It's just like my good 'o 35mm film camera.

Still remembered those days, when shooting is not about point and shoot like a machine gun and only later to rely heavily with post editing. It's almost a hit or miss affair during the film days, every photos you take required you to think about the composition and also the technique of know-how to correctly expose a film. The high expenses of developing film also make one to consider learning the proper way to handle the camera.

While I'm not complaining about Digital, it has make photography learning curve much shorter. But to shoot without thinking and expecting the camera to do wonders left many photographers to blame on equipments rather then focusing on the technique.

New technology also means new things to learn. For now, I am focusing on my post editing technique especially so when digital darkroom can really do wonders to the final output.
