I thought you might find it amusing, (as if you all didn't have enough to do...). Here's a "raw" scan from the negative. I just removed a little dust. I'll be playing with this in PShop over the next couple days. I'd appreciate hearing what you all would do with it, [run the hard drive through a big magnet; try to get a refund at Jiffy-Mart for the film and processing; take up a new hobby...]. Anything goes; try to make it better, warp it, grunge it; whatever takes your fancy.

I like, Misha. the only thing i would do is crop just below the greenery, there's too much down there

I agree about the cropping. The colors seemed a little cold so I nudged them around a bit (reduced the blue in Curves). I didn't re-crop the image to show that there are some blue flowers at the bottom of the image which were lost before warming up the colors.

ASalina posted Wed, 08 May 2002 at 11:19 AM

Now ya see? This really is a shame...

bevchiron posted Wed, 08 May 2002 at 11:34 AM

LOL! I like it ; )

Well bev, you know how it is. Once people start using a place for a dump ground, the problem just gets worse and worse...

AhHa! The devil of the woods...now things are **really** getting ugly! Luckily the *weird rubbish eating metal bug* (from planet punkie) came and ate all of the rubbish and scared away the ugly men...only trouble is it seems to have scared off the goddess as well!...oh dear, hopefully she'll return soon! :-)>

PunkClown posted Wed, 08 May 2002 at 11:28 PM

This is what the weird bug said after all the gorging on lovely trash...

bonbon posted Wed, 08 May 2002 at 11:48 PM

oh my.... i hope that bug does'nt decide to eat the forest too... it still looks somewhat hungry!
