YOU!

This is a scan of a very old print - unfortunatelly the negative was lost.

Digital went to the rescue.

Yr comments will be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Matt

Since I do not have a large enought scanner, I will see the price for professional scanning/repair.

I feel this photo is worth saving.

good snap but the contrast could be better.

Jorge, I know you've been striving for the Salgado look for a long time and was about to comment on a thread where film & developer(s) used by him are discussed that the process is far less important than the camera work. You validated my statement, thanks!
This image --as you properly explain its technical shortcommings- while not perfect in contrast, tonal range, grain (or lack of it), etc., is in the purest S. Salgado style.

Forget the workflow, the image is the foundation! ...and as the MasterCard ad says, for the rest there is always Photoshop. ;)
