Am I suggesting you need to rush out and buy a film camera and ditch the digital? Absolutely not. Would I discourage you from picking up a cheap second-hand film camera and having a go? Absolutely not. I think your photography will benefit from shooting film because of the reasons I have mentioned. It can be a lot of fun, and also heartbreaking.

Well, here’s a motto I encourage you to embrace regarding your photography - DO IT FOR YOURSELF! Shoot whatever gives YOU pleasure. Pick subjects that interest YOU. Go out when YOU want to shoot. Use the equipment, lenses etc. that YOU want to use. Consider an image you have taken to be good if it makes YOU happy and/or proud.

Photography - it’s a rather large sphere for discussion. Another subject that is equally discussed and debated is neurodivergence. They just happen to be two things that I experience in my life. They actually overlap too.
