Children! Today's lesson is about Christopher Columbus. He discovered America in 1492 and read a proclamation giving the New World to King Ferdinand of Spain. This impressed the local people so much that they now celebrate the second Monday of October as Columbus Day This image was taken with a Mamiya 645 ProTL with a Mamiya-Sekor C 1:2.8 45mm N lens using Kodak Ektar 100 film, scanned by an Epson Perfection V600 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.

Thank you for gathering to meet with me. I have news for you all. The proclamation that I have here declares that from now until eternity these lands and all of the creatures and people who reside within are hereby subjects and property of the crown of Spain . . . Thank you for your attention. This photo was taken by a Zenza Bronica S2 medium format film camera and Nikkor-P 1:2.8 f=7.5 cm lens using Kodak Portra 400 film, the negative scanned by an Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner and digitally rendered with Photoshop.
