Hi Chuck,
It was shot from a Holiday Inn balcony, so yes, that is a light. Aside from
a little spotting and brightness adjustment, I did not attempt to edit the
image. It was presented as a part of a discussion of the aging of various
photographic media, and I didn't want to distort the comparison. You are
correct, I could now clean it up and try to bring out the strollers along
the edge of the surf.
Yes, I did notice that there is vignetting in the upper corners. In most
SX-70 images, this would never be noticed.
Thanks for looking.
