The Return to Film: The Seagull 4A-103 (Part 1)
It seemed the basis for the PERFECT article, if only...
Time has a way of getting away from a person, only to make it's duration known at a later date, when a specific thought comes to mind. For me, it was seeing some photos that made me realize that I had shot just 3 rolls of photographic film in the past 12 years!
It is pretty unnerving to look back at how quickly the world of photography changed. In 1998, I was shooting entirely on film stock, mostly slides. By 2002, my Casio QV-3000 3MP Digital and I were inseparable. The ease of use, instant previews, and instant results were definitely something lacking in the world of film. I can recall day trips in the 1990's where it was commonplace for me to shoot three rolls of film in a single day. And then upon finding my groove in the digital revolution, an entire decade had elapsed, and there was a realization that I'd shot as much film as I'd have occasionally shot in a single day.

Wednesday Window to the World #4
Here's a good way to keep the rust off!
Since I'm spotlighting collected historical color photos each Monday, it seemed only fitting to complement this feature with a present day color photo of my own each Thursday. Just as with the collected photos, I'll detail the Who/What/When/Where/Why and technical How from each image:

When Color Came Into the World
"Mom, when did color come into the world?"
Yeah, I said it. I must have been 5 or 6 and was panning through a World Book encyclopedia, noticing how the photos from the 1920's were all in black and white, and there were photos from the 1950's in color. Surely there must have been a reason why there were no color photos of the 1920's, and that surely must have been that the world itself was in mere shades of grey.
