I've always felt the same way about film. I mean, hell, given enough time in 
the darkroom, a large format printer, and access to the right locations, I 
could do 
Ansel Adams quality work. For that matter, given enough time to practice, I 
could play the saxophone like Charlie Parker, paint like Botticelli, or  write 
like 
Faulkner,  But I haven't done those things.

The crux of the matter is the image, not whether you used photoshop or D-76 to 
get there. In the end, digital versus film is of no more significance than 
Nikon 
versus Olympus. We all have preferences, and some of us may use a variety of 
tools and techniques, but in the end, its the image you produce, not the tools 
you use.
