Thanks for showing, Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org] En nombre de Jim Nichols Enviado el: martes, 27 de noviembre de 2007 3:43 Para: LUG@Leica-Users.org Asunto: [Leica] IMG: Scenes from the Past, Part 2 Luis, Each day as I look at more negatives from my father-in-law's collection, I find another one that amazes me. The one that I found today has been in a box of other negatives and prints for eighty years. I have no idea who made it or what camera was involved, though the quality of the image is good. It shows my wife's mother, uncle, and grandmother at a San Diego beach around 1926, a year or so before my wife's parents ever met. My wife gave me permission to post it. The scanner software scanned it as a color negative, giving the blue tint, which I like, so I did not convert it to true B&W. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/San+Diego+Scene+Circa+1926.jpg.html Comments and critiques welcomed.
