Yes Paul...what a waste of good film, and never did more to trannies than bleaching, and adding colour etc. > >Aren't photoshop layers amazing ?. Yes we have all moved on but the discipline of working in proper large format is an excellent training ground. If I could also add that years of hand printing monochrome and colour is excellent for how one appreciates and deals with colour editing in the present day digital working environment. It's great having this bottomless tool box but you need to know what you want to do with the tools first! And at the end of the day they are just tools.
