Another Wrangell shot. These 4x5 Ektachrome transparencies are causing me a bit of a kerfuffle. (I don't know where these words come from. They appear unbidden in my mind. Kerfuffle is an actual word.) These transparencies are so easy to scan! And I have a reference with the transparency. One of my fears with using transparencies is exposure. You can't be a sloppy as you can with negatives but these have been fine. I have a few complaints on how 30 year old Ektachrome renders colors but I'm sure that Fuji Velvia 100 has benefited from 30 years of research and development. Maybe I should try some of that Velvia? It still doesn't have the lattitude of negatives.
