    Part of my job many years ago was to capture hypersonic shockwaves using Schlieren photography.

    Google it and you'll see some pics I took back then.

    Yeah did it all, getting the film cut to the right length to load into the cassette. Dev and fixing then printing / glazing.

    A manual camera and light meter never mind the rest of the processing is a good way to really understand photography.
