Nice photograph, but if you seriously want to be a photographer, you will have to find a way to avoid dust.

Good mood! GL

friiskiwi, it is easier said than done. I must ask, do you do film photography? And if you do, do you do your own developing and such? I don't means to be condescending, if I come off that way, I'm curious because if you do, then you would understand that getting dust in inevitable. Trust me, the first scan of the negative was way worse when it came dust. There are just some you can't win with. Any serious photographer would know that. That's why the invented editing programs.

I have been doing photography since the early 60th. So even though I don't do my own prints from film anymore, believe me I have done plenty of film processing and printing.

Then I'm sure you can understand how hard it is to get rid of dust. I scanned this negative 4 times, and this was the best result I got. Some of the spots I couldn't get rid of, no matter how many times I tried, I think the negative might have been scratched there. When I get photoshop, I'll tough p all my negative scans, and then they will hopefully look perfect

great shot and find.

wow think of all the laughter, crying, partying, family time, and lonely nights spent in this kitchen.... makes you wonder...

Stairway to ... Nowhere ? ^_^ Nice shot !

ummm the angle of this shot is a little weird... I wish the building wouldnt of been cut off

Love the light in this one, could use a little straightening, and I wish id had been in HDR. Would love to see more detail in the shadows. You could try Topaz Adjust.

Thx friiskiwi I straightened it a little.

That is better.

good angle
