Santa Fe Man 2
This was taken about 1972 during the Santa Fe Fiesta. I used an Asai Pentax Spotmatic camera that I purchased while serving with the US Army in Seoul, Korea. I used outdated Tri-X film with an orange filter. I processed the negative this evening (Oct. 28) using a new Epson V500 photo scanner with negative attachment, then tweeked in PhotoShop.The resolution from the scan was outstanding, in my opinion. I am very pleased with the results, since I have several thousand B&W negatives from that era that I've never printed. Back in the early 1970s I processed my film in a fine grain developer, Microdol X, 3 to 1.
