You want to TOSS them.

As a child, I remember those slippery strips of negatives buried in the bottom of the envelope holding my new photos.

They were a NUISANCE.

Not necessary to KEEP.

Really NOT important.

My older self now understands how important those NEGATIVES were for development in both photography and life.

The “negatives” become the stairs we climb and with each step a new lesson is learned.

Lessons test, teach, and ultimately build wisdom and true character.

The development process has the potential to eventually become both a stunning photograph and a more beautiful YOU.

NEGATIVES?

They’re priceless.
