Oh film, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
1. I adore your beauty. (There may be younger, digital alternatives, but they’re not in your league.)
2. I like the way you challenge me and make me think (about whether I’ve set the exposure correctly).
3. I relish the anticipation when we are apart, knowing that we will soon be together again (when my scans come back from the lab).
4. I enjoy spending time with your family (even if some of them are a bit eccentric or grainy).
5. I love taking you on adventures (though we have to be a bit careful with those airport scanners).
Most of all, thank you for making me see the world afresh, through new eyes. Let’s never part. Will you be my Valentine?
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! My love for film is extremely strong as well and i dooo appreciate this lovely homage to our shared passion!!!!
may the Gods of beauty hear our pleas and always keep 120 and 35mm forever in our reach!!!! (and all the polaroids, of course!!!)
xxxooo
yes…
film… my first love
and I am loving it even more the second time around…
I just got back my last roll from my recent trip home and it took me right back… to the Alps, the ocean in Brittany and the streets of Paris in a way that (sorry 5D), my digital images cannot…
happy Valentine’s day, Kirstin

“2. I like the way you challenge me and make me think (about whether I’ve set the exposure correctly).”
