My older daughter (16 years old) just wants results and doesn't give a (insert favorite expletive) how she gets there while the younger one (12 years old) wants to understand and control the details of the process. BTW, of the two, one prefers a P&S and the other prefers Leica-R with 60mm macro lens. Any guesses which one prefers the R? That's Boof, of course. I find myself enjoying the process often more than the final result. I enjoy practising the piano almost more than playing in a concert, I enjoy travelling than the destination, and I like the process of taking pictures and processing them, almost more than hanging a print on the wall. In some ways, I'm scared of the final results: they are final. That's probably why I rarely show final prints to people, but I am much more comfortable showing contact sheets, test strips, and raw scans of negatives.
