Why might that be? I'm sure it has a lot to do with patience. With film, I wanted to conserve my shots and choose the proper exposure. While many shots were sadly too dark or too light, the composition was generally better than what I've shot recently.
Rummaging through boxes packed in the basement, I came across my Olympus 35RC. It's a yard sale item that I actually never used. After some clean up, the little rangefinder didn't look too bad. Surprisingly, the battery still had some juice to power the light meter!
I've been inspired lately to try my hand at black & white film. Maybe it's a big waste of time, but I'm hoping this exercise will help teach me the patience for better composition. With all the ice and snow, it's the perfect season to find contrasting images.
