Photography of sorts

I am a lineman for the county.
And I drive the mainroad.
Lookin' in the sun for another overload.

I hear you singing in the wire.
I can hear you thru the whine.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.

I know I need a small vacation.
But it don't look like rain.
And if it snows that stretch down south,
won't ever stand the strain.

And I need you more than want you.
And I want you for all time.
And the Wichita Lineman,
is still on the line.

a lineman is a proud thing to be.

this is my old man:

I'm surrounded by criminals
Heavy rollers even the sheisty individuals
Smokin skunk and mad Phillies
Beatin down Billy Badasses, cracks in stacks and masses
If robbery's a class, bet I pass it
Shit get drastic, I'm buryin ya bastards
Big Poppa never softenin
Take you to the church, rob the preacher for the offerin
Leave the fucker coughin up blood, and his pockets like rabbit ears
Covered the wife, kleenex for the kid's tears
Versace wear, Moschino on my bitches
She whippin my ride, countin my onec12

I can email you a jpg if you want. Flickr only lets you upload a certain size now apparently..

Anyone have experience scanning negatives or slides? Specific hardware used, things to avoid? While I generally trust online reviews from reputable places, I trust you phototards more.

That's not a helpful suggestion because it's not what I want to do. Pay attention.

so you are saying that you want to buy a piece of expensive hardware in order to work with archaic media?

or, you already have a scanner that is capable of working with slides and negatives?

A year or so ago I priced out some film scanners and the only ones I found worth a shit were $800 plus.

I think what Gorilla is implying is that only a fool would buy such an expensive piece of equipment that will be worthless a few years down the road in order to shoot film. Also, you remove the development process, where your exposure and contrast is tweaked to make a pretty picture. Then again, you may be a fool, and you may have a large wad of money that you want to waste. If the latter is the case I humbly suggest a round-trip ticket to vegas, an eightball, and a whore. If you're not too picky on the whore you should have plenty of money left over for food and a few souvenirs.

If you have old slides and film negatives, take them to a professional to be scanned, just as Gorilla said.
