This slide was made in 1984, stored in a binder and not touched for 30 years. There were “dust” spots caused by the plastic holder which I didn’t try to clean off on the slide but cleaned up with NX2 in PP. Amazing quality after 30 years with no color fading.<br />
This digital image is from an Ektachrome 100 transparency from 1984. I used the NEX-5T with 55mm Micro-Nikkor close focus lens and pointed it at a lightbox about 6 inches away
This is from a WWII diesel sub, once parked in Charleston, now long gone. I think I would have liked to make a sub my home, but I am sure it would have been very expensive to maintain! But secure from hurricanes, and cosy in the winter. Picture heavily filtered to get the lighting effect.
From a very old slide. Edited in Live Picture and GKON. I think I used a 50mm f3.5 Elmar, as I have had that lens for 50 years. There were hours of work to get the apparent lighting right. The shadows on the original were bluish.
I lived here on Greenwich during the 80's. I could walk down the steps into the financial hub of San Francisco, or turn right and walk down the hill into Northbeach with its Italian restaurants like Cafe Sport, Cafe Malvina, and North Beach Restaurant.
