It wouldn't be a problem if it was and i think id prefer it to be a film course. Id love to learn the whole process of developing and enlarging. thanks for all of your reply's

Why do you say it has hurt more than helped?

There's a lot to sift through. My time here has been better spent associating with peers and studying the work of talented artists rather than asking opinions and technical advice. Learn to stay positive, develop your own style and judgement and be aware that some are so dissatisfied and insecure in their abilities that they derive enjoyment by provoking self-doubt in others.

If you're really serious about learning, then sit your ass down and study.

There are a couple of thread here on TPF with excellent book recommendations if you do a search. Even if I were to do a class, I would want to read alot.
