Last spring I took some portraits of Owen Pallett aka. Final Fantasy for Toronto Life magazine.

Exponentially, or in steps equal to the stops on my lens.

Until I finish dealing with the color shift issue, b+w it is.

I SEE

The last post seems to have answered my questions. It is the jpg. I should have known that. The screen shot is a png and it is fine between the two browsers.

FIREFOX (L) SAFARI (R)

FIREFOX (L) SAFARI (R)

The colour and contrast differences between Safari and Firefox are driving me mad. Here is a screen shot. Both are “wrong”. Why? Why why. I can’t take it.

I wish I could just have everyone over to look at prints.

My grandmother threw most of her old negatives away. To me this is insane! I managed to salvage a shoebox full containing random sleeveless negatives in four formats dating from the 50s to the late 80s. This picture of my mother is one of a few that survived (with thanks to Photoshop for healing some serious scratching and horrid storage damage) the purge. Sigh.

If anyone has tips for scanning 110 film….

Q: How does this translate in 40 or 50 years when your grandchildren are left not with a shoebox but  perhpas with a largely unedited iphoto library on a circa 2005 hard drive that uses USB 2.0? Even if the USB 2.0 weren’t an issue…. as if that thing is going to mount - not to forget the sheer amount of crap you shot because unlike film, digital is free! Double sigh.
