The Lasting Nature of Art

I found two rolls of 35mm film.  I wasn't sure when they were shot.  I wasn't sure what was on them.  I was saving them to send off, but I was told by a friend that Walgreens offered processing and scanning.  


He said the quality was good.  He said the turnaround was fast.  He said the price was great!


I use Richard Photo Lab for all my professional work, but I thought I'd give Walgreens a chance for some personal stuff.  One word.  Impressed.  The resolution isn't high, but that is the only critique I have.  


Here are a few of the images from the rolls.  The film was shot in 2004!  The images are from a trip to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens to see the Chihuly glass exhibit.  I am amazed by how well the film held up.  It has spent it's life in my house or studio, but it has never been refrigerated.  
















Tech Notes:
Fuji NPH film (predecessor to Fuji 400H).  I don't remember what camera and lens.  Processed and scanned by Walgreens.  No adjustments made except to add the border.
