I was doing photo journalism in high school and weãwould develop our own film. Still, the cameras were NOT automatic focusãor anything, so you had to set the F-Stop, the speed, etc. and then takeãtime to develop, then do the prints (that's where I REALLY learned whatãit meant to 'crop' something!), so yeah, you want the compisition toãbe up there! :-Dããããã...
