A few weeks ago, I purchased a new Plustex 8200i Ai film/slide scanner for the purpose of digitizing my slide & film collection from the 70's & 80's.

Having gotten the hang of it, I'm on my 4th Carousel tray (out of about 75!) Most of those shots are not worthy of posting, so I merely scan them in at 1200-pixel resolution, with a simply curves, contrast, saturation and WB adjustment and save as a JPEG.

However, I have started to run into some of the 'keepers' I remember taking way back. Those images are scanned at the highest resolution possible and saved as a TIF. Then I get to do what I could only dream of back then.... really, truly edit them.

So I've started this thread to share with you some of those keepers. This is the first one out of the chute:



So sit back, enjoy the ride, and travel back in time with me!
