Digging into the files looking for images never printed has occasional rewards.

 Slim's Groc., Highland County, Virginia - Olympus OM-2S, 35/2.8, Fujichrome 50, Desaturated

Which is better - Digital or Film?  This is one of those arguments that has been exhaustively argued in every discussion group and forum on the Internet.  Any time you get two or more photographers together, there is the insane desire to discuss this, but usually in the context of justifying our own purchases.  Nobody wants to be "strange".  Peer pressure is not just a thing that school kids have to deal with, we adults constantly are subject to the peer pressure.  Peer pressure has forced the majority of photographers to adopt digital.  But is it truely better or are we lemmings too afraid to buck the system?

Please leave your comment with a brief explanation of which is "better" in your own words.

"Oh no, don't tell me that YOU take pictures of flowers too?"  Khen came pretty close to thumping me over the head when he found that out.  Yes, Khen, I like to take pretty pictures of flowers too.  But, wait!  These are different.  No, wait, really they are.  Right.

It's hard to ignore an old relic. A mid-winter outing to photograph eagles turned out to be an opportunity to photograph something totally different. Adding to the mystique of the day, I used another old relic, a film camera loaded with the new formulation of Kodak Portra 400VC.
