Damaged Negatives Project

by Jill Farmer

These negatives were my favorite shots, yet I stored them in non-archival sleeves and they are damaged. I've tried two ways of scanning them - lid up and lid down on a flatbed scanner - and liked neither. The best result seemed to be rephotographing the negative against a light source. Accidentally discovered this is an excellent way to add texture at the same time.
