You haven't asked an important question, "Which film was used" I found myself the positive film gave better results than negatives. Mainly because negative film is usuall processed and printed by a computer which usually just give average results.
The other important thing is Mark's undoubted skill as a photographer which is more important than any amount of kit. John King.

Try not to post very large photos or very small ones. Pixel width should be no bigger than 1600 and no smaller than 800. This allows members to view the images full screen, depending on their monitor settings. Quality should be sharp and maintained when resizing images. File sizes should be around the 250KB - 600KB mark, but not bigger than 800KB. Try to keep somewhere in the middle of all this, around 400KB can produce good images with no loss of quality. You can easily reduce the size of images using Google's own picassa http://picasa.google.com/ or Irfanview http://www.irfanview.com/ -- Experience the Devil
