Truth is beauty
If I had to explain why do I shoot film and digital, picking just one word for each of them, I'd say I shoot film for PLEASURE and I shoot digital for SPEED (immediate results).
Some years ago, most of my shooting was for work, and I had forgotten, little by little, the huge pleasure film photography gives me... Then, other activities allowed me to stop shooting for money, and I don't need to use digital anymore, except for things that are to me less photographic, and very few times every year: a friend comes to visit my city and I digitally shoot a peculiar map to send it through the net... I see a nice pair of shoes and digitally shoot them to ask my mother in the other side of the world if she wants them, etc... But not even for family / friends I use digital anymore, because those cases with film are a lot more fun to me... And they feel the same! I've discovered they like to see the images days or weeks later too!
Which two words would you pick to explain your feelings or reasons?
Cheers,
Juan
