I was searching for b&w film candidates as always, when I came across this sign. The letters are washed out, and I wasn't sure how to shoot it on b&w film to break out the lettering. As a reminder to return later, I shot a digital test photo. I did have 35mm with me that I could have used for an actual b&w film test, but was in a hurry to run down the road to other locations that had greater promise. And with film, I'd have to wait to finish the roll and accumulate enough to justify mixing developer. With digital, I can play around with it right away.
