Curious - how did you feel about shooting transparencies Mark? It was always a very different trip for me; when photographing transparencies or 4x5 or 8x10 Polaroids; wherein "all the work" had to be done "PRECISELY" before tripping the shutter. No darkroom adjustments. No discussions with the guys at the custom C-41 lab. Had to "get it" on the film. Emulsion tests, lights, filters, color temperature meters - those were the days! Far fewer fish swam in that pond. ;~) Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist
