Heaps of good advice here. Even at my age, I always learn something new from these threads. Good one, this!
Making contact sheets is a waste of paper, chemicals, and time.I can afford the first two, but prefer not to use them to minimise my environmental impact and, as I'm somewhat of a miser, remove myself by that small bit from the consumer chain. The third point is most important to me - TIME. At almost 70, I have less of it left, not more. Many many more important things beckon, like photographing, time with my partner and our cats, enjoying good lunches and dinners with wine with my friends and family, and especially travel. Making tiny prints on sheets of paper in the dark is, to me, a monumental waste of time, paper, and effort. etc
Lot's of good points here. I like looking at contact sheets, but there are two problems. I don't have a permanent darkroom and time is valuable.
