I understand not liking being in photos (because same, I kind of tolerate it now because I like to pretend my kids and any descendents might appreciate it one day) but sometimes I think a lot of people have a very major case of spotlight effect XD
I think J felt the samee as you, he has both DSLRs and an old film camera and he really enjoyed shooting film but it got expensive real quick.

Yeah it's why I mostly switched to digital and use vintage lenses on them. I love film so much though, it's what I started with and I always enjoy it. The development here is quite cheap, and I think in the future I'd like to get my own scanner which would cheapen the whole thing even more. I would develop myself too but I don't have the space here, nor would I know where to get the chemicals. Seems like it's not too bad to buy film from England (instead of here) where it's about half the price.
Yeah Armenia is very new to such concepts. When I first arrived I never saw anyone with a camera, and the tourist season here was still very small. But recently it has been picking up a lot. I see adults in the street doing photography, I see teenagers with little Canon's strapped around their necks. Everyone's suddenly got a camera and it's great to see. I think it will help relax the general environment the more people do it here and it becomes familiar.
