Before Photoshop / Canon FT
This is a photo that was not doctored in any way. Shot in Agrigento, Sicily way back when one could visit the monuments at will, it was shot on Kodachrome X at a speed of 64 with the Canon 50mm F 1.5 FL. Today when people complain about ISO speeds I remind them that one could shoot at 64 instead of 64,000 as people want these days. Actually 64,000 is deemed too little. Give me a break and learn to take photos. A bunch of cry babies with their auto focus ans auto cameras. Good photos could always be taken no matter what the cameras or the technology. People take pictures not cameras.
