Prior to the Digital Camera...

A typical camera bug would know these words - dark room, roll of film, over exposure, focus, out of focus blahblahblah. Cameras then used a roll of film to take pictures. There is a viewfinder to locate the image and the photographer would have to focus the subject. That is a lot of work compared to our point and shoot now a days.
James, the younger brother, has developed a liking to photography. However he stepped back into the past. He is using the roll of film route. He has a "suki" developer downtown that he frequents to to have his pictures developed.
On our recent trip to Seattle, WA, his camera was with him together with the SLR of his Tito Ramil. The SLR was for those quick pictures while the manual camera was for the less quick pictures ( I think).
Below are some of those less quick pictures. I think he has the artistic eye and the steady hand. I think he has the passion. I am scared of the expenses of providing an own darkroom - if requested.
