Thanks for all the comments , done my ego a power of good..!! Some answers to the questions raised . At that time I was using a quite cheap Canon auto focus 35 mm SLR . I cannot remember the model number but it was around £200 ISTR. The lens was a Canon 28-70 short zoom , which I still have and was using on a digital SLR until I bought the 24-105 L that I have now .Once again it was not that expensive . The film of chice was Fuji Superior 200 asa , occasionally Kodak Gold 200 asa . I remember it was quite cheap to buy packs of 10 of the Fuji film. The negatives were scanned using my Nikon Coolscan LS40 scanner . A nice piece of kit that usually does a good job . However I have found that a lot of scans I do are very grainy , some more so than others .I use photo shop to tweak the scans and the results are what you see . I think I know how to take a good photo although I take loads that you won't be seeing on here ....I only post the good ones! I think that if you are a regular photographer that you see things differently . Where the sun is , where shadows are etc . Which side of the road you stand on sometimes makes all the difference to a photo.
Hope that was of interest,,, Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "London Bus Scene" group.

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
