Done with film, sensia 100

I like it. I've used Sensia 100 before, and got similar blues. This is a beautiful shot, Ivar.

That is gorgeous, Ivar. As Rob says, the blues are especially nice and I like the composition very much. Was it shot as this format?

Thank you both. No the image is cropped due to plenty foreground. The sensia was to me 'the film due to skin tones and it's natural colours, also for landscape as here. Still have some on the shelf and my old eos 650 with a ef 85 is still intact as well as a small eos 300 analog camera. My scanner a Nikon 2000 can no longer be operated due to Microsoft operative system I'm afraid.

Vuescan will work with your scanner Ivar. The difficult bit might be getting a SCSI adapter for your computer though (unless you already have one). I think I have a SCSI to Firewire adapter that I bought to use with a Microtek scanner but it didn't solve my problem. You are welcome to try it if you like and I can post it to you when I'm back in the UK.

That is a rather splendid photo Ivar. Dreamlike in a way.

Thank you Pete, I think I have a SCSI to either usb or firewire. I'll come back to you on that one. Shall I find Vuescan on the net as software I need then? Thank you for the offer and information, absolutely highly appreciated.

Thank you Paul, I have approximately 40 to 50 thousand slides from 1969 to recent years. And 45000 are crap, 4000 are so and so, 900 are passable and 100 are ok I guess.

Lovely image Ivar.
It makes me want to explore the film pack's for LR. I too have a couple of old film cameras doing nothing. No film or intent to buy any though despite seeing images like yours above.

Yep! Love the photo and the blue colours in it!

Thank you Milan and Asun. Some people here are diving into films again and I'm not certain that is a way for me, but at least I'll give it a try with the remaining ones I have or donate them to other souls here on the forum? I have lots of films to scan still, so as Maestro Pietro assumes, I shall have very little time for mischievious behaviour, whatever that is?

Wow, evenings in the Larsen household must be a riot..

Superb Ivar, I hope you get to scan many of the older images.

Thank you Paul and Julian. I have another scanner, a flatbed that also does slides and negs, but it is a little cumbersome to work with although the Nikon one takes time scanning at its best, 15 minutes to do so. Maybe I'll just skip the Nikon for the time being. Vuescan which shall sort out the problem shall cost me a hundred dollars to buy it seems. The Larsen film archive is situated in my office downstairs Paul, and you have to knock on its door to be let in, and the room is soundproof
