How To Change Brake Lights Bulb In Buick Enclave



Hello to all. My name is Alberto and this is my first post. Actually it could also be the only one.
I know are very fickle and very lazy. What
tell me, I was born in the fabulous year 70, so there are more youngster. But my visceral passion for photography goes back only two years ago. Needless to say, we are in 2008, my first camera was a glorious second-hand Nikon D70 which I still use and still is my only digital camera. But it is my first post and I would not bother with these old stories ... So I decided, monitors ebay and I won a few days Yashica FX-D 50mm f/1.9 with the beauty of 19 € ... yes, 19 €! . I still remember the fear in half so particular and the mysterious charm of the object, film and photography (the real one). Load the roll, the manual focus, the loading lever ... a new universe.
I would rather talk about my personal discovery of an alternative path, a path so steep as it is gratifying: analog photography. Old style Here's the story: was the fall of 2008 when, hanging out on ebay, I discover the existence of a boundless universe of film cameras for sale at low prices. Intrigued I started studying it. Studio makes and models and find, especially on Flickr, a more interesting universe of analog images. Magical images.

arrives and I get, not without difficulty, a roll of Kodak T-Max 400
Click, click, click for thirty-six times and then finally to develop the port.
My fortune in the office have a good photographer "old style" Point Dia (who know him in Genoa), and was 1.50 + € 4.50 for other samples of my first photos come alive. are not bad and some choose to print.

finally going to the retreat. I look at them. And boh ... I do not know ... There and then I seem to fly off and do not know. The look and respect, choose one and hang on the wall dedicated to photos of the house, surrounded by a dozen other digital images.

for them do not understand why, but as the days pass more steals the show from the others.
It 's done. After a week I am madly in love. The silver-
photo I came inside.
The remaining pictures on the wall are at once silly, dull, cold and meaningless.

The magic is done.

Since then many things have changed. My "fleet" has expanded analog (Rolleicord, Nikon FE2, 39Q Contax, Olympus 35RC ... and many others ...) and above all my passion for photography chemistry has grown dramatically. Now development and mold me, and the expense, otherwise his slight, it is reduced almost to zero. The films I have learned to buy online and save a lot. And perhaps most important is that I came into contact with a photographic world that lives in the shadows but that is so vivid and, at least for me, is far more interesting and challenging photographic universe these days, everyone got to talk about megapixel sensor and away from all those poetic aspects of photographic art that emerge rather overbearing in microcosm of chemists and artisans of the film.

I know, I said little and nothing about the magic that is taken from pictures on the wall. But the love of analog photography anyone can, if you want, look for yourself. I am convinced that 99% of the people, distracted as they are, never not notice the difference between a digital photo and a similar, but after you shoot and print for themselves and for that 1% that has the sensitivity and the ' suitable attention to appreciate the poetry of a photograph.
