Yes. I'm currently in the process of scanning my negatives.

MAN its been a long time since I saw grain.....wait, no it hasn't I just shot at 4 am.
I MEAN film grain.  Took me a while to get used to it.  Tell us next whether it was worth
investing in a camera and film and processing.  I am FULLY converted forever and always.
But back when I used film, I wasn't all that good, anyway.  I always just blamed the 
hand-me-down camera and my lack of knowledge.  Never had a lesson.  So I always wondered
why my flash shots at football games were half black.  I guess I must have found the answer
at a library or something.  You see kids, when I WAS young, there was no internet to find the 
answers to stuff, lol.
Less sky, more butt.

I LOVE the way film grain looks vs digital noise.  I'll be sticking almost 100% ro B&W with film.  I will be posting some color though.

Looks like somebody stole Captain Morgan's little brother's sword blade.  Sold for scrap iron by some poor street urchin 
most likely.  When I get home I want to post up a cool shot I took that I never felt was worth anyone looking at, but
now you reminded me of it...

I love the way he needs "PIRATE" written on his bandana, lol.
And again, looks like someone got his blade!

I wanted to stick these up there since you reminded me of em.  Prior to seeing the cruise ship I had deemed them
useless for sharing.  This is about 5am on the Riverwalk in New Orleans.

I think for 35mm I'll stick to B&W.

We both know they are crappy, but the subject matter is cool.  I never expected to see that in 
the middle of the MS river that that time of the morning, although cruise ships are a common sight there.  
If I had intended to ever be able to use it, exposure compensation would have been a good idea.  
But I wanted the sun more than the ship, so I made a choice, lol.

I think that there is certainly a place in the bag for that Kodak film, but not for the effect you
went so far as to buy a camera to acheive.  SO I think you are right.
