…and in the tmp directory this week

…is another scan of an old negative.

If I remember right this was about a 6 second exposure on Fuji Superia 200 at f/8 on my Minox GT-E, set up using my Minox mini-tripod, and timer to reduce shake; the exposure is AP so I cannot be exact about it.

Scan 2400dpi on a Epson 4870, ICE, USM and Auto. Reduction GIMP & PBM.

The setting was out with friends on Aberystwyth seafront on in a deep twilight, conditions in which the Minox has always excelled and which suit my long-held preference for existing-light photography. The illumination over the subjects was a mercury streetlamp which colourcast has been reasonably balanced by the scanner, with minor tweakage under GIMP.
