Halifax project

[Vic MacBournie]

Here is an interesting way to use your digital camera. I inherited a 
pile of 4X5 negatives from my father who used to be a photograher in 
halifax Canada. I decided i wanted to preserve the negatives which 
already have begun to suffer from neglect etc. Scanning them would take 
forever and it would be expensive since i did not have a proper scanner 
for 4X5 inch negs. Solution: I put the negs on a light table and shot 
them with my istD and macro lens. I then brought them into photoshop 
and inverted them, tweaked them ....
Here are the results of the first few I've done... I am amazed at the 
quality...
