I don't think we would experiment with film, that's a lot of effort for people who are really passionate. For passing fanciers lime us, it'd be impractical. I am thinking of gathering up a few things though and taking them to a pawnshop to surprise my wife with a gently used DSLR and then maybe find her a book on photography. I think she'd have fun with it.

This is the book.

No lie. I owned a couple dozen backintheday and this one is far and away the most useful single book.

Sweet! I'm gonna hunt that down!

I don't know if it's up your alley or not, but a few years ago we got some books on colors and layouts by Jim Krause and they're very good books for beginners. Very easy to use.
