While I'm not necessarily sad about the loss of film photography in many ways, I'm more heartbroken about the lack of romance. Let's think about this. Lots of major hobbies have some sort of perfect combination of senses.
Whiskey and fine alcohols are all about it. Cars exude sensory indulgence. Gaming adds to it in various ways--from the arcade consoles at the pizza store to chugging Mountain Dew in a basement. Even the outdoors hobbies have it. But photography has more or less robbed itself of this. And unfortunately, it doesn't seem like manufacturers care about it. That's why I feel the soul has been sucked so much out of photography. It's a major hobby that's been replaced by an unfeeling algorithm. . thephoblographer.com
