Excellent, I agree with the above poster :) !
RyukyuRu,
Thank you !
Joshpurple,
The original color print was excellent but, aged over tome the color slides become corroded and deteriorate. Good reason to digital scan, everything.
Joshpurple,
That's exactly what happened and the reason I chose to go B&W for this.
Once those old photos get beyond a certain point, there's no way to make them look presentable.
Thank you for answer/replies :) ! And I hope you had a good 4th!
Josh,
Everyday above ground is a good one, to me!
