Disappointment.

Analogue photography brings surprises, excitement, happiness, and also...disappointment.
It doesn't secure like what digital can bring : Delete whatever you feel you doesn't like, or snap again and again over the same thing, adjust the color, cropped, clone, whatever you wanted to do using the photo editing software.
Analogue, is analogue.
There is a lot of ppl out there asking me why are u playing with film camera nowadays?
Hmm. Mainly because of, I love the surprise it can bring me. The excitement of waiting the film to process and develop, the delay-ed happiness a picture could bring me, as well as...disappointment.
Disappointment of the pictures turn out to be very bad, out of frame, failed, overexposed, or underexposed, or the film doesn't roll properly, or whatsoever.
Really felt disappointed lately with my latest few rolls of films.
:(
The disappointment is like...Hmm...it;s really heartache. :( The beautiful things I saw appear to be less beautiful as what i expected.
But this is all about analogue photography anyway.
I love surprises and excitement as well as the disappointment it can bring.

Totally agree with iamwen, analogue camera can be secure if you choose the right camera, additional enhancement with a good lense, skill does counts too. Just my personal opinion.http://www.flickr.com is a good reference site.

the mood of a pic changes when it's under or over-exposed. dun assume a nicely exposed shot would make a great pic. sometimes, getting silouettes, washed out scans etc, gives the shot the perfect mood.

I think this applies to many of your pics in your post. they are nice just the way they are. :)
