Re: A River Runs Through

Sorry for your loss. Something you can tell Meg about those old negatives ... In 1996 Hurricane Fran nearly destroyed my house. It blew half the roof off followed by torrential rain. The half of the house that was inundated included the room where I had the binders with all of my sleeved

Wash them thoroughly in fresh water, keeping going until as much of the dirty water inside has gone as you can manage. If there's no sign of water inside, don't exercise the focus and zoom. Find yourself a big sack of indicating silica gel crystals, the stuff that goes from blue to pink as it

Re: A River Runs Through

Thanks all got your supportive And helpful comments. A bit of the back story and a brief update. We live on a river, the Chippewa about .5 miles downriver from the confluence with the Pine River, about two miles upriver from the confluence with the Tittibawasee which then joins the

Re: A River Runs Through

So sorry to hear this, Stan.  Hopefully your insurance will come through and soon life can return to some normalcy. With regard to your photos/images in whatever form you can recover them - over the years I've lost possession of a multitude of images.  The flowers, landscapes, etc all invoke

Re: A River Runs Through

So sorry to read about what you all are having to go through. People keep telling me to look on the bright side but that is always easier said than done. The only bright side I see with y'alls situation is you will be starting now with new everything. I do hope you will be able to recover your

Re: A River Runs Through

Stan, sorry to hear about your troubles with the flood. Good luck with all the cleaning. Your thought of the day of avoiding floods is not an easy message. It is however a useful warning to look into my own storage of pictures, though I keep a part of it in the cloud. Henk Op 2020-05-27 om

Sorry to hear of your flooding Stan. A few years back, I went through approximately 20K slides dating back 40+ years of shooting and wound up with about a thousand I deemed worth keeping. Glad I did that. -Original Message- >From: Stan Halpin >Sent: May 26, 2020 10:33 PM >Subject: A

RE: A River Runs Through

Wow, Stan , that is a huge blow. My only thought re the negatives is to ensure you try to save family ones, as my experience in the last few weeks scanning and processing those I brought from my mother's house is that even the most seemingly inconsequential one can turn out to be significant.

Hi Dan - Great subject, nice scene but poor light. Turning this into a 'pano' by cropping horizontally above the tree would greatly improve this image, as I don't see the background above the tree adding, in fact its a little distracting from the guys fishing. Kenneth Waller
