Hey, Steve, Nice to see you again! How's it going? I think digital has allowed me to shoot more good shots, because I'm not so inhibited as I used to be - I can experiment a bit more and generally shoot at will, capturing things I'd have never "wasted" film on before. Turns out that some of those shots aren't so bad after all. That being said, I think my best film shots were better than my best digital shots, and maybe that's because I was inhibited and took more care with each shot, film being a relatively precious resource. I'd say overall, I think digital has improved my shooting. <audible gasp from crowd> cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
