My prints from 21 years ago have faded but I had the negatives scanned at time
of processing. This was before I had a digital camera; they were pretty
expensive and not as good as they are now.
Scanned files back then were lower in resolution than you would get today, but some of mine are decent. I brightened these up a bit.
The giant clock is in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris. I converted the image to black and white because it had almost no color anyway.
That museum is in a former railway station and has wonderful art. See it if you get a chance!
The other three photos are from Monet's garden in Giverny.
Frank asked another tourist to take the picture of us in the garden. I saturated this one today because I wanted an impressionist look, and it was already soft-focus.
...stepping back in time.

ReplyDeleteLovely nostalgic views <3 I have never visited Monet's garden in Giverny, hope I'll some day can...
ReplyDeleteLove your clock photo!
ReplyDeletemonet's house in Giverny is a wonderful place. And the musee d'Orsay is one of my favorite place
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots. I dreamed (I think in a fever) that I had a camera that could switch from film to digital with the click of a button. These photos do show a good time in France.
ReplyDeleteVery cool!! I am periodically scanning all my prints and negatives from way back when. I love film but digital is a lot handier and cheaper.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully taken.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures. I especially like the clock from the Musée d'Orsay which I have visited and which I prefer even to the Louvre. The black and white is very dramatic.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these lovely photographs.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
