I rescanned the Ektachrome using a lightbox and NEX-5T with micro-Nikkor 55. Set for Vivid color. PP in SIlkypix Studio 4 for better more natural colors than previous posting. I shot this from my C&C 3/4T raceboat. No one seemed to mind that I was so close to them. My son steered while I filmed.

I was there when this photo was taken. It does an excellent job of capturing the moment. there's so much motion in this photo! Keep in mind that this was taken from another moving sailboat. no time to futs around with camera settings .... one handed in order to avoid falling overboard. Fantastic!
Big Boat Series 1985. PP in NX2 to make the foreground greyish, and to clean up the dust caused by storing the slide for 30 years in a cheap plastic page. If I ever do slides again I will store them in boxes.

Best composition of the Big Boat Series photos in my opinion.
This picture is from a 30 year old Ektachrome (1984) which was stored in a three ring binder in a slide page. There is some dirt on it. I copied it using a micro-nikkor 55mm lens on a NEX-5T using a lightbox as a source.

First time I have used this method. Read about it recently, and thought it could be done more simply with existing equipment. I think the Micro-Nikkor macro lens is important because it is designed for a flat field, like a slide, so there is no fall off in the field. I was surprised that the "scan" quality was so good. I like the results better than flat bed scanning.

Beautiful expression and interaction of father to child.
Personally, I would crop the empty space to the left to concentrate on the child's expression.
and share it.
