Hi Ed!


These scans were made directly from the negative  --  while photos from 
negatives look extremely good, making a scan of the photo is not unlike 
making a copy of a copy of a video tape  --  the loss is Horrendous.     
Scanning from the negative produces clarity and detail that is 
Absolutely Stunning.

I have other WP slides and negatives but won't get to them for a while.
