Katariina and I have enjoyed doing weddings and we certainly miss that now. We sold all of our photo equipment last week except for one R6 and two lenses and I kept my M stuff. In Finland we have time to go back to the photo basics and fine tune the scanner and the software (Nikon LS-2000 and VueScan). I would appreciate if somebody could advise me what I did wrong with the scanning. The negative is very thin.

The content and light are beautiful and a Noctilux image without question. A beautiful wedding moment. As you say, the scanning leaves somthing for correction and I wont touch that as I don't know how one might do the electronic part for improvement. But it's one damn fine photograph considering the conditions it was shot under. Quite frankly there are any number of Leica users who'd be only too happy to have captured this image. Certainly me for one! ted _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
