Wolf values his wet darkroom years, however, and feels it enhances his digital work. "I've noticed that younger people who have never worked in the darkroom have a great deal of difficulty working on an image, to focus on important things. It's very subtle what you can do by just darkening certain areas--focusing attention on certain parts." Yet, regarding the insinuation of computers into photography and into our everyday lives, he notes, "I think everyone's computer time has increased dramatically, and sometimes I get fed up because I'm spending hours and hours every day in front of a monitor, and life is more than that."
