I really enjoyed going through the prints. Nice to hold them in my hands, like you say. It's a lot different than the computer screen. Hey, don't dis your camera... You can take great shots with anything! "your camera doesn't matter" http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/notcamera.htm It’s definitely weird how now the prints are optional and the CD is expected.

Along with Thad's -Boombadeus- pictures above we got our wedding pics and it was quite strange to hold actual photos once again after about 4 years of not doing so. The only reason I went digital is because I, unlike him, I foolishly take the risks...I always run through film. Unfortunately I have the tendency to take plenty of pictures of everything; whether it's digital or not. As you can imagine, picture taking was getting expensive, specially with my Advantix (the prices never really went down) and I ended up taking lots of "blanks" :-). Hi Alexis,

I was finally using my lomo photo sampler camera-no viewfinder and 35mm film-so big change from my digital. I forgot about the film developing experience as I dropped off the film and suddenly 1 hour development felt painful in comparison to digital instant download. It was truly strange to hold so many of photos-I have not had that experience in quite some time. It felt so much more tangible and live-with the paper in my hand. I forgot what it was like to be gentle with photos. also-the woman at ritz camera assumed I wanted a cd of my photos and asked me if I wanted prints too. I can recall where the question was reversed a few years ago-and the cd was the extra, not the prints. I love love the beer photo-and wish I could take photos like that-but alas I have a simple digital camera and one fun lomo sampler (interesting photos) and no photography skills. I also enjoy using kodakgallery-very nice job and framing options are cheap. p.s. thanks for the comments on my blog-glad you liked my poem! I recently just had some photos printed as well.
