[Leica] Old images resurrected

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

Actually, I think this was KX, the earlier K12 64ASA stuff while K64 
was K14 processing. K-X was grainier, but not quite as grainy as 
K200. I shot all the Kodachromes available from 1958 to the 90's, 
from 10ASA on up. While I was shooting it, the K-X of the late 60's 
and early 70's was probably my least favourite, but having 64ASA 
available was truly liberating after having started on ASA10. Looking 
at the pictures now, the grain hardly ever bothers me, but the 
blocked up reds and greens do at times.
