Kim, I have nice success with an Epson flatbed scanner that scans in slides and negatives as well as prints. -- Joe On Feb 22, 2008, at 11:34 AM, Kim wrote:

FWIW: I know that Patrick realizes there’s more to great photography than being in the right place, although that does help, doesn’t it Rob? Rob, Tyler and other U-A gallery greats are good because of preparation and learned skill, plus a lot of talent. I tip my hat to you all (can’t name everyone, but others have also posted some great pics over the years). Some of the very best photos that I’ve taken were with my first 35mm camera, strictly manual, and a 50mm lens, the only lens that I owned. One of my favorite places to shoot and where I learned a lot was at the oil refinery and RR tracks about a mile from my home back then. Some of those pics were pretty good by photographic standards, if I dare say so myself.
BTW, 35mm slides that I’ve scanned at home or have had done “professionally” have never turned out satisfactorily. Anyone on this list have suggestions?
