Goodbye Darkroom... Hello Digital!
When I first got into photography I developed everything on the black and white darkroom. I loved it! It was so enjoyable to be in the silence of the darkroom, swish the tray back and forth, and watch the paper in the developer tray slowly reveal the image I had worked so hard to perfect. I loved the darkroom so much that I set up a make-shift darkroom at my parents' house in the extra bathroom. It has been a long time since I have lived at my parents and I don't have the room to set up a darkroom where I live now. Since my last time in the darkroom I was introduced to my first digital SLR camera. I was a "digital skeptic" and thought that film was the only true artistic form of photography. After using my Canon 20D for only a short time, I fell in love. I always want to shoot digital. I decided that if I ever want to print in the darkroom again I will use a lab at the local photography school. I am saying goodbye to all of my darkroom equipment, taking it out of storage, and selling it. This post is a tribute to how good my darkroom treated me and all of the great photos I developed with this set-up. Thank you! ;)
