Perched on a hillside

I’ve taken a break from re-scanning these holiday pictures today and instead had a go at scanning some very-expired colour film I shot a couple of weeks ago. I’ll post the results in one of my far-less-frequent-than-I-originally-planned expired film posts.

The film expired in 1987, so that might give you some clue as to what to expect, suffice to say that they don’t look quite as nice as these re-scanned Ektar pictures.

Water-taxi booking

Another re-scan of a picture which I’ve posted on Flickr previously, but not here on the blog. There’s a definite pleasure to revisit older negatives and re-scan them with improved equipment and skills. This set I’m going through now have much better colours, and also a lot more resolution than before.

I like the vertiginous elevation of the hillside houses and hotels in this shot.

Beached boat at Positano

I’ve been scanning more pictures from the 2018 Italy trip, so here’s another that’s not been on the blog before (I don’t think). This one wasn’t taken at Capri, but a few days later on the beach at Positano, which we visited during a coach trip along the Amalfi coast.
