Parking

I had a single roll of 110 film left in the freezer and, a few weeks
ago, I took it out and put it in my Minolta Autopak 450E. It was Kodak
Ultra 400 film, dated for expiry in July 2007, so it was over six
years out of date when I shot it. The exposures are actually pretty
good, though when I used the Autopak's flash too closely it certainly
overwhelmed the highlights. Here, shooting into the sun's reflection,
the Autopak gave some nice flare.

I couldn't get anyone locally to develop it and I was thinking of
developing it myself as b&w, but then I realised that Lomography has a
service to do 110 by mail order. It's not very cheap, but it's
definitely a good service, and they provided very good scans (about
1500 x 1200) via a Zipped file for download. I'm looking forward to
getting the actual negatives in the mail because the Lomography scans
are a little cropped from the full 110 frame.

I adjusted curves, cloned out some dust and, of course, added the
frame here, all in PSP X5.
