It appears to me that many people in photography are driven by the control issue, where they want to be really in charge of the process and they love the process as much as the end result.
It's the nitty gritty of messing with things as basic as possible that they enjoy - where the individual gets hands on for the entire cycle; that's what really gets them wet.
Shooting manual, developing film, grokking the grain and the 'look'
This is shown at its most extreme by the large format people who just love the swings and tilts and special developing and the real thrill in the end result is the process by which it was done.
