This is one of my favorite frames from the ones I’ve taken in India.
When a dear friend of mine said he wants this printed and framed in his home, I took it as an opportunity to see how much can be extracted from the negative.
When I initially developed all my India photos, I gave it to the lab and asked for a basic scan (developing and scanning around 25 rolls of films ain’t cheap).
Since then, and while the lab did a brilliant job as ever, I found myself wanting to see some photos in their full glory.
So, as long as I was going to finally print this shot, I decided to send it for a spin on the only drum scanner around - at Rea Printhouse.
This is my second experience with drum scanning, and again I was blown away.
The amount of detail is truly astonishing, as well as its handling of color.
Before you are both the original, basic can, alongside the drum scanned one.
I believe the images speak for themselves.
