I've been playing around with my old negs again.... nasty habit :) I thought this one might give those suffering freak weather conditions something to smile about. I guess it's close on 30 years old now and was taken on my first SLR. It was a Zenit, that cost about 20. It wasn't a bad little camera for the price and I got some nice shots, when it wasn't chewing up the sprocket holes :) For the the technically minded, the negative is Ilford Pan F, liberally coated with dust and scratches :( It was scanned on a Nikon Coolscan 3 and cleaned up in Photoshop.... thank you for the history brush tool. I steepened up the curve for the mid tones a little and added some sharpening.
