Yokes, the mood is great in those shots.

Thanks!

I now have a proper scanner (Epson 2850) and have rescanned them

Seems like the outdoor pics are a bit overexposed (lighter than norm). Can that be adjusted or it that normal for these cameras?

Going where others can't...

	I intended to overexpose the shots a little to maintain some shadow detail, and I underdeveloped them a little as well to try and compensate. Then again, I adjusted the levels in pshop also. I'm not sure if there is a norm for the camera.

	The scanner can make a big effect on exposure as well. Since it's Negative film, the interpretation of the image by the scanning software can make it look completely different than it might look printed, or even scanned on a different machine. What software are you using for the capture?

	Viewscan. I'm by no means a master scanner.

	I tried using vuescan, but I could never get it to scan accurately. It was a pain to use. I find scanning to NEF and using the auto contrast/exposure with NikonScan to me much easier and more efficient, then adjusting the levels in post if necessary.

	Polaroid Type 55 negatives are VERY fragile.

Damn, that's cool though. Is that water or heat damage? Or just age? Or something entirely different?

	Water washing away the emulsion. I'm new to shooting with 55 (and AMAZING film, btw) and don't have the technique down yet. If you wait a while before cleaning the neg (as I did) the emulsion dries and can be washed off when you clean it. oops.

	Wild. I haven't had much experience with instant film at this point, but the fragility of the emulsions is really fascinating. I've always wanted to try doing a lift/transfer but I've never been that motivated to gather the resources and actually start messing about with it.

I have a long history of ruining Type 55 negatives. They're way too fragile for me.

The second one is killer. I love the lines in both of them but I'm a sucker for photos of the rails.
