Weeks go by, but finally an email from the lab comes through. “Scan day is the best day,” it reads. And it’s right. The result of my gamble on film is a series of imperfect photographs that, true to Klein’s wisdom, do feature a depth and feel entirely different from their digital counterparts. As I scroll through the gallery of images from The Stadium Tour, it’s easy to see why Bernie’s Photo Center is back in demand after decades of down time. I understand why Kodak is on a hiring spree and a new generation of photographers is forsaking the sleek shine of digital for filters and actual negatives that conjure the feel of a more tangible reality.

5 Best Exhibitions In London Museums Now
5 Best Exhibitions In London Museums Now
The world\'s greatest space photography is shown every year in this annual competition when photographers from across the globe compete to take home the prestigious title. Over 100 photographs are on show in a special exhibition at the National Maritime Museum, displayed in lightbox displays. As well as the overall winner, there were eleven different category prizes this year, from glittering galaxies and shimmering aurorae to out-of-this-world skyscapes. Gerald Rhemann is the overall winner of Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2022 for his photograph Disconnection Event. This remarkable image shows Comet C/2021 A1, commonly known as Comet Leonard, which was first discovered in January 2021 by astronomer Greg Leonard. For many astrophotographers this comet was the highlight of the year. \"Astronomy, myth and art come together beautifully in this shot,\" says competition judge Imad Ahmed. \"It holds great value to scientists, as it elegantly captures a disconnection event. Yet this photograph, which was taken on Christmas Day, seems to tell an otherworldly story too – it could be the Star of Bethlehem, an angel or a fairy soaring through the night sky.”
