A trawl through the archives - I
To date, one of my oldest Flickr colour slide postings, dating from Easter 1971, a capture of Western SMT 1726 (TCS174), a Bristol FLF6G/Eastern Coach Works new in 1962, seen en route in Greenock to Braeside Farm.
My parents had moved from East Yorkshire to just outside Glasgow. I was visiting them for the Easter break, midway through my second year as a student. Scotland was very new and exciting for me, and it was a very different Scotland too back then.
I was using a brand of film at the time whose colour quality quickly faded, but digital tweaking has brought this old image back to life.
April 1971
Zorki 4 camera
Boots ASA50 film.
