Photo student Gene Peeper poses with a camera while working the photo lab on May 2. Peeper is retired and is taking photo classes at Meramec for personal knowledge gain. “I shot digital for about two years, but it didn’t really do anything for me,” said Peeper. “I really like the start to finish process in the darkroom. It’s given me a new appreciation for black and white photography.”
