Found Kodachrome Slide (further restored by Chet Kresiak)

handwritten on slide, "June 1951"

 

One of the things I love about Flickr is that it can be very collaborative. As I've been posting so many of my collected "found photos" and "found slides" so many people in the Flickr community have been so helpful in identifying locations of the photos, car makes and models, and lots of other information I haven't known myself.

 

Also I love it when somebody works with a photo I've shared to make it that much better, as is the case of this excellent restoration job done by Chet Kresiak that he sent me this morning.

 

My original version is the comments below.

 

You can see Chet's version is so much cleaner (lots of dust removed) so much sharper and so much more vibrant, in better keeping with the Kodachrome original slide.

 

I do spend time editing all my slide scans, but Chet takes it to a whole new level with his excellent restoration work.
