:: on film




i love my little digital camera.
but it's predictability was growing old.

i was ready to return to film.
i was ready for the mini.
the diana mini, that is.

and now she's here.
and i've been joyously clicking and winding
my way through each of my days.

i have no idea what to expect.
and i am all the more happy for that.

stay tuned for photo scans coming to a blog near you...

    I love that... film is so brave compared to digital... it's a lesson in patience, and facing the unknown and I completely admire you for trying it again : )

    Oh how exciting! I love film, but after using a digital camera for so long and getting so used to taking over 1,000 on a 9 day vacation (no joke...I just did that!), I think I would run myself out of house and home if I even tried to use film again.

    Can't wait to see what you snap!

    I agree, Alfie! There is something great about digital, but I miss film and the excitement I used to get waiting for pictures to be printed so I could see what was captured! Cute blog!
