Thanks for responding and for your kind comments. The site certainly
isn't yet ready for primetime, but thanks for looking all the same.
Like many people, I had thought at one time that a web site might
generate some interest in sales of my photos. I think I've maybe sold
one that way. I do better just letting people rifle through prints,
so that's where my effort has gone. I had a web site up and running
pretty early (pre-dating Dreamweaver, Frontpage, etc.) and then I just
lost interest in it for most intents and purposes and didn't bother to
learn much to keep up with changing standards.
But I am interested in giving my family a chance to see where I've
been, mostly without them. I could have done slide shows, but I was
always using my time to scan instead. With digital capture, of
course, the slide show possibility is gone too (not doing digital
projection yet).
As I go back and look at older scans, I face an interesting
realization. When it comes to the digitized image, I certainly do
like original digital capture better now. I like the color accuracy
in particular. I don't care so much about the grain/noise, but if I
did, I would certainly lose all interest in film in a hurry. I was
scanning some Kodachrome slides yesterday that I just got back and I
had forgotten how difficult it is to get anything like the pop, when
they are scanned, that one experiences with Kodachrome slides on a
light bench . It's a lot of work too.
