Growing up, I had a little Instamatic camera, and getting one roll of pictures developed and printed so I could see how they looked cost me $5-$7 in 1978 dollars. I didn't do lots of experimentation - there's nothing like listening to the grumpy parent whose head is cut off in the picture and who has to pay for printing my beginner's mistakes.

I'm feeling rather giddy still (and my flist is probably going to have to listen to me burble for a while) that I can take thousands of pictures, throw away the iffy or repetitive ones, and not spend any money at all on development or printing. I might even get good at composition and eye.

And make as many new icons as I like, too (like this palm tree one).

Electrons are cheap - use as many as you like.
PC-based processing can also cover over a multitude of photographic sins.
