Subject: [Leica] Another Door Closed on Processing

For the past year and a half, I have been shooting digital images.  I had 
one remaining roll of film in my SLR, containing a few images.  I decided to 
finish the roll and get the film processed before storing the camera away.

When I took the film to my local Wal-Mart, the kind lady said they stopped 
providing 1-Hour processing in January 2008.  She suggested I try the local 
Walgreen, which provided the service, but the CD contained images at 72ppi, 
which works for small prints, but is not as good as I recall getting from 
Wal-Mart in past years.  Drop-off processing is still available, but takes 
about 6 days.

One of the shots on the roll was a sunset photo taken while waiting for my 
wife to get her hair done. Shot through the windshield at the end of a rainy 
day.
