You obviously think I meant that as a character trait, but I did not
intend it so.  I was referring to the sloppiness that we all get when we
don't take one more step to make our work a little bit better each day.


You are right there is something terribly wrong with your workflow to
produce a scan that dirty.  Probably undisolved solids somewhere along
the way.  Are you using photoflow at the end?  How clean is the dryer?


Anyhow, back to the point, I took seven minutes with your scan in
Photoshop, and here's what I came up with:

You would be right if it is just lazyness. Here's the original scan:

As you can see, unfortunately, I got some water spot and dust issues on
this roll. Some part of my process is not right on developing and I am
still tweaking. Most are not this bad. Anyway, it sure is not laziness
that cleans those spots :-)

BTW, I work well over 60 hours and I have 2 full time employees working
for me. We are a teeny company but I don't think anyone has ever called
me lazy. To each their own...
