Each period becomes the ?old days ?for good or for ill. What we get used to feels solid (though obviously isn't). Transitions feel tough (though necessary and inevitable). And here we are - used to the digital work flow. Yesterday was a good old day. Tomorrow will be one soon enough. I don't miss the darkroom chemicals either. Though I do miss the hands-on print making craft. Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist
