No worries morfe lux! I think there's space for both disciplines, too. A personal theory is the old fashioned way of doing it will be a sought-after art form in its own right, given the fullness of time. In fact, I know a photographer who's fascinated by all the old techniques and recipes for chemistry, and she's going off to pursue photography using those techniques. We need people like her to keep things alive.

Obviously, there are times when digital has the edge - like I wish I had a digital camera, so that I could get pictures of the places I've visited actually up on this website; I have hundreds of negs to go through and print up, yet not enough time/money/resources to do so, currently. It's a real frustration. The speed is a real asset!

Horses for courses, but it'll all even out in the end. ;o)
