I found these in a neglected corner of my hard-drive. They were made around twenty years ago at a field west of the Organ Mountains. No info attached to the photos -- they were likely made with the Spotmatic. I will try to track down the negatives to make some new scans.
UPDATE:
I was right about the timeframe; the pictures were made in February of 2004. However, the camera was not my Spotmatic, but rather the Kiev IIa loaded with Tri-X. Rescanning did not gain anything of interest beyond image size.
Still, I'm pleased I was able to find the negatives from twenty years ago.
I need to learn about your system of organization to retrieve negatives from 20 years ago. And, I like these photographs!
ReplyDeleteNothing terribly original in my filing system. I store my negatives in the plastic Print File negative preservers. I label each with the date, subject, camera and processing information. The same info goes into the computer album labels. I wish I had always so organized things back beyond those twenty years, but a lot got muddled and lost during our moves around the country.
ReplyDeleteI should add that the negative preserver sheets go into 3-ring binders, of which I currently have a dozen filling up a whole book shelf. Blogger labels and Flickr tabs are also helpful in initial image searches.
ReplyDeleteI store my Print File sheets in archival boxes which have broad categories (Family 1980s, Greece, Travel USA, etc.). Metal slide boxes have similar categories.
