Sharon 1999-2024

 

Two images taken 25 years apart. A new portfolio I realized I can make with people I have been photographing over many years.

Reexamining old files-we've come a long way

 I was recently forced to clean out a metal locker that stored all my third level off site back up's. These are mostly DVD's, CD's and 3.5 drives in storage cases that I keep at my studio. I have am one issue out there and the mice got into the locker and made a mess, lets leave it at that. In cleaning out the locker I found really old back up's and some CD's from 2001. I decided to spin up some of the drives to see if they are still readable and check the CD's as well. This image was taken in 2001 with a Kodak 14N, a 13 MP camera that at the time sold for $5,000. I reopened the files with PS 26.1 and did a lot of work on them, mostly noise reduction, but they are a far cry from what we're using now.
