My how times have changed...

I was thinking today, that's right, for once, at least once a week, I try to sit and just think. Oh, how I miss my 4 x 6 Camera and being in the Darkroom creating all day, the sound of the whirring fans, the smell of developing solution...would I have ever in my wildest dreams(and yes, I AM PROUDLY)aging myself, imagine that there would be something in my future called 'Digital Photography'...never.
I did not mind doing things the 'hard way', my only regret is that I have only slides and 4 x 6 prints and Black & White 8 x 10's thrown askew in boxes somewhere, a collection of 20 years as a Combat Photographer. Boxes that need investigating and hopefully I may have a contest winner or something really special, manipulating my Camera box manually I knew for real what 'Depth of Field' and "Contrast' meant.
I think however that I may take a lesson or two and really get into the nitty gritty of Digital Photography, at least to my knowledge, there is no risk to my health and the results ARE selling!
So, why is it that I never thought of actually 'selling' my Art & Photography until post retirement? I could have been making some big bucks, I stayed in the background I suppose until the fumes dissipated!
