I'm trying to make phase III without the MF expense. Not that I wouldn't
like to do the MF thing, too. Budget just doesn't allow it. The added cost
of using a pro lab will slow me down a bunch, so maybe that will be a help in
my developing better skills.
Need more time and $$$. If my photographic skills ever catch up with my
artistic "eye", I'll have it made. I "see" great photographs (opportunities
for someone with the right gear and skills) all the time, in everyday life.
I just need to start putting MY gear & skills to work more when I see those
opportunities. Should carry the camera with me more often, I guess, and not
just for special outings.
