I liked the framing the duck posed in.

Thanks!
I have a lot of pictures taken by this Canon. Many of the beautiful and stunning mountains in the north😊
The only problem is that I don’t have a scanner. I know, if you’re a real photographer you should have one🙂
Idk if I take a photo of a photo is good enough?

I probably should buy a scanner and start to scan. I have so many printed photos and also slides from me and my siblings from our youth.
But it’s so much work😂
i use a macro lens to take a photo of the negative then convert it to a positive. if you google “camera scanning” you should find some tutorials. paying for scans is expensive!

$18 plus Film cost. I would require high-quality scans which make up a big part of the cost. I don't plan on doing Film processing again - don't have the patience.
that’s why i scan at home. my daughter and i both shoot film so i’ve more than made up the costs of getting some hardware for camera scanning.

This might look like the same image I posted a few weeks ago. But it’s not it’s the same bird perching on the Construction Obstacle in the middle of a river. Quite interesting how they continuously stay in one position day after day

Thanks for the info😊

It’s the same here in Sweden, it cost a lot to pay for scans.
I could buy a decent scanner for about 50-60 dollar, so it’s affordable.
