Last weekend, a kid asked me why I was using a 'real camera' instead of my phone
I was out shooting in the city park last Saturday, and this teenager came up to me curious about my old DSLR. It hit me how normalized phone photography has become, making dedicated cameras seem almost archaic. I remember when carrying a camera around meant you were serious about capturing scenes, not just snapping for social media. Now, I find myself longing for the deliberate pace and tangible results of film, even though I shoot digital for convenience.
