I used to be quite an enthusiastic Photographer in my former years, when i was even better looking than I am now and far to modest with it.
I got as far as developing films and printing, only monochrome as I never wanted to do colour and it was still quite tricky to do this in the early 70,s. Like most peole now I use a digital camera and I must admit they are so easy to use and the results are amazing.
Yet I still dont really consider this as real photography were you had a negative and if stored properly would last indefinitely. I just wonder if our digital images with still be accesible in ten years time, memory sticks fail and CDs often stop opening, assuming they will still be making such things in ten years time.
Anyone else got any thoughts??
