A gallery for old school black and white, using film, an old 35mm camera, and most endearing of it is doing the darkroom chemistry myself and using alternative processing - sephia toning, Van Dyke, cyan type, alcohol transfer. There is something to be said about throwback & rediscovering the imperfections and naivety of old snapshot photography. There's a different, pleasing texture and contrast that makes film camera and chemistry technique unique from digital photography. {Camera=Room in Italian; Obscura=Dark in Latin}
