Hey Mark,

Nice stuff!  I'm impressed with the scans and the images.  You have a good
eye.

Thanks for the tip.  I have the Scan Dual II and VueScan but have not tried
the single pass multi-scanning.  I have a few slides that I have not been
satisified with the scan quality that I am now going to go back and try
again.
