Photo I.
I'm taking a photo class this semester, and I don't think I could be happier. I can't believe I ever doubted myself that this is what I want to do. It's amazing. I couldn't imagine not doing photography. I like digital photography, but it's nothing like developing and printing your own photos. It's feels more organic to print in the darkroom. It is very, very time consuming and the darkroom chemicals make your mouth and throat dry. But I love it. My professor said that our generation is probably the last generation to learn how to print in the darkroom. You can already kind of see it happening two out of three companies that make the paper have stopped. One of those companies being Kodak.
