[PRCo] Re: Call Me Crazy...

[Bob Rathke]

I took hundreds of photos on the Northside from 1963-66, and never got any 
cross-hatch photos, but then I was shooting color slide film.

The moire pattern shows up when you scan a halftone print, such as a printed 
page.  Photographs have a continuous tone, so the pattern doesn't happen 
when you scan a photoprint...but maybe the scanner used for the North Side 
photo was on the wrong  scan setting.
