I keep saying I'm going to take what few photos I have left from the film days and have them professionally scanned in. The odds of that happening are...well, let's just say you have a better chance at winning the lottery. So, I scanned in (on my cheap home scanner) one of the last photos I made in "the film days," back in 2004. It was taken on my little Contax Aria with a Zeiss lens, probably my 100mm macro. I do miss shooting with such high-quality lenses (although it's hard to tell from this crappy scan). But I thought this was a sweet mommy-daughter shot. The family portrait I did for them (they also have 3 boys) was enlarged to 30x40 (actually, I think it was larger, but I have a really bad memory) and has always been one of my favorites.
I love that this was made on a cloudy day and the colors were subtle and somewhat muted. I think this shot would've been less interesting taken in full sun.
And on that note, the skies in Arizona are crazy cool from this storm that's been entertaining us the past few days...get out there and make some photos!
