Archival slide scan
Shot in Torre Molinas Spain long ago with a Nikon FTn. a 35mm f2.8 Nikkor lens and on the then new Kodachrome 25 that had just replaced the legendary Kodachrome II. The ISO. then called ASA. was a mere 25. Taking a picture required some skills then. Now of course cameras shoot practically in the dark and since it costs nothing to shoot a great number of photos are taken and the so called best are archived. Nevertheless, this ease has merely improved the level of mediocrity. Everybody is a photographer and an artist these days. Good for them.

Dig we must
As I dig deeper into my archives to sort things out and scan as many negatives as possible, I come across images that I had forgotten I had made. This dates from a trip to West Virginia in the early seventies. It's a panorama shot on Tri-X Pan with the Leica M-4 and the 35mm Summicron F2. I think that it's an image that can be added to my portfolio.
