Results from my Glen Etive trip...

Well, Peak Imaging came back with my 2 15x12's from my "underwater" photographic trip to the Glen 2 weeks ago :D

My first tryout with Fuji 160S - I'm impressed. Only got 2 shots and it will need a return trip (or two / three etc) to get the best from the area I was in, but I definitely like the colour and contrast - even though it was heavy cloud (or "downpour" as it's known locally).

Thanks to Joanna's focusing tips and a couple of links she sent me, something "clicked" (no, not the centre detent things.. :roll: ) and I somehow managed to get a pin sharp image front to back (also back to front, so that could be seen as a double success?) 8) .

Now, I really should try to get one of those scanner thingummys so that I could share the images - but , should it be electronical, gas or steam? Or a "green" one - that seems popular nowadays? There's a future problem, I think :shock:

Regards
Eddie

all I'm asking is for a bit of sunlight in the right spot when I'm ready
