Who is into it? There are alot of cool places around Buffalo. If so post some pictures of places you’ve been.

It’s cool. I have a bunch of 8x10 prints of all the pictures I like, which I’ve developed myself, and have the negatives of everything else just in case. I don’t find it necessary to convert to digital since I’m not going to do anything with them. Thanks for the info in case I ever decide to convert for some reason. On with the pictures: ---
