So... I went digital... but not quite. I still carry my K1000. I still prefer and love it as one of the most important extentions to my creativity. Digital imagery will never replace photography. There is something intangible about a photograph. There is magic, a soul and a beauty that can't be matched. I am thankful to digital for puting photography back into a niche. It is making it a dying art that will only be done by die hards. Any dink can pick up a fully automatic digital camera and capture a nice image. That leaves the photography to artists. Thank you digital.
