I try to restrain myself from "me-too" responses, but
Peter describes my own situation pretty closely.  Back
in high school I used to shoot a roll of Tri-X every
single day, develop the film after school, and make
prints after supper.  [The life of a yearbook photo-
grapher.]

We did a little Cibachrome work as well, but mostly
B & W; color printing was just a bit too tough, and
too expensive.

My film scanner and my Epson have changed all that.

The next step, ironically, will be to approach B & W
work again, via digital means.  For that I'll need
another Epson (maybe a used 800?) to try out the
infamous Dan Culbertson Quad Tone techniques.
