Looking in dismay at the scratches, stains, and light leaks that plague my early b&w negs, I'm considering just leaving them. I could convert a lot more negatives to digital if I just wiped them off and scanned in what I had, warts and all. Just minimum dust removal.

The raw processing is part of the image, yes?

I'll post others. What do you think?

The few scratches in this great shot could be dealt with in photoshop in a few seconds. Don't let them stop you from posting your film work, especially if they are as good as this image. Regards,
