Description

I really liked this photo when I got it back, (slide) but I am bothered by a line in the top of the frame. It looks like the film was scratched, and yet the line only appears in this one photo from the whole roll.

A beautiful winter scene, Cathy! I don't really see the line when it is enlarged, it shows more in the thumbnail. #13229

Wintery shadows with the touch of blue sky is so lovely!!!
Cathy, I couldn't find the scratch or line in either of the sizes....sighh, might need new glasses.:-) #23986

A difficult lighting situation. You made a lot out of it!
They sometimes scratch the slides in the machine. The cutter does this. I always order my slide-films rolled and not cut. They have ruined some of my best shots!

Thank you Ellen, Carol, Birdie and Cheryl, for responding on my photo! And I was so worried about that line - my fears have been put to rest! This really was a difficult lighting situation, Birdie. I bracketed my shots, and though some came out with the snow looking less grey, I ended up losing the detail of the footprints. This was the one I like best. Thanks again!
