Response to Imagination: Hard at work

from tom meyer (twm@mindspring.com)
He looks a little "raccoon eyed" in this picture, but the area around the bridge of his nose shows some kind of mottling that's not in the print. It just bears some investigating. I scanned this as a color picture and it looked so bad, I desaturated it. Maybe that caused the problem. I'll compare that to a normal b&w scan of this image as a first step... t

fw, thanks for the metaphorical take, I am so close to this image, I hadn't considered any larger view. And Frank, your attitude about cameras reminds me of my attitude toward mountain bikes when I built my first one 20 years ago. I'd buy the best components I could find for road bikes, bmx bikes and trials motor cycles, and start drilling and grinding on them, right out of the box. Then glue 'em and screw 'em to an old Schwinn bomber... most excellent fun, dude! I'm gonna try a trashed diana lens on a body cap for my F series 'blad.

That's a nice pic of your kids and a fun modification on the 7, I'll bet it's tricky to print... glass carrier?... t
