When I was growing up we had a dark room in our house. My dad mainly only shot in black and white because he is color blind and he would never be able to get the colors right if he tried to develop and print the photos himself. When we did have color shots we needed processed, we sent them out like everyone else. Because of that, I have always had an affinity for black and white photography.

My dad also set up his dark room in the bathroom and we were not allowed to use it for hours, only with permission and I hated that.
Having a color blind dad must have been a challenge on so many levels, But I'm glad he still did photography.
Yeah, he still takes photos today too, but not as much as he used to. That would be horrible having to wait to use the bathroom!
