I started shooting when i was sixteen then put the camera down for many years...for the longest time i truly felt my life was missing something...when i inquired about a darkroom at the school last year the doors opened up...i found what was missing from my life (a photo lab!)...i taught myself how process my own work and have become rather engrossed in it...now i'm the school's photo teacher and go to whenever there's a question... photography keeps me alive, sane, or at least out of prison...however, much of my thanks has to go to the forum as i can't even begin to explain how much i've learned here over the past year and a half

I am interested in knowing what purposes all of you feel photography serves, and especially interested in knowing those purposes beyond earning a living.Another way to put my question (or this could be interpreted as another question) what is photography beyond the camera (leaving the technicalities of photographic equipment, that is)?Another, more romantic way, to word my question would be - what place in your heart does photography fill?Marilyn________________________________Leave gentle fingerprints on the
