I mentioned the unsaturation in Photoshop because the frames out of the scanner were super-saturated, they make Velvia look like grayscale. These shown are still a bit too saturated to my eye, but they begin to get solarized when I try to further unsaturate them. I wanted folks to know that I had already tried to make them less vivid. I don't remember if fresh Ektra 15+ years back was this vivid, or if it's something to do with age.
