The writing on the border is really clean Bryan and that's what prompted me to make the clean comment. Usually the borders have some artifacts due to film holder or from the tape used to hold the negative but there is no sign of that here. That's why I thought this was a wet mount scan.

Ah I see, no I just like to have the borders sometimes. My scanner uses "hold down plates" of ANR plexi and so I can get the whole negative - but I often just crop to the relevant image area and/or mask off the negative to prevent stray light from leaking in. That said, some days when I'm just not on my game I overexpose the crap out of some negatives which make them a bit "rougher" looking, due to grain and such, so I thought you might've meant that.

Nice work recently here, very inspiring. Here's from a couple of weeks ago on the Olympic Peninsula - Bunch Creek Falls. Hasselblad 80mm with Rollei infrared in available gloom. Scanned from this morning's print.

I like this one. It's funny, when I looked at the picture I thought to myself - looks like southern CA - I lived outside of San Diego in Poway as a young boy back in the late '60's - early '70's. It just gave me a deja vu feeling as me and my friends would explore the hillsides all day long in the summer time.
Anyway, I clicked back and saw I was close on the location - thanks for taking me back.

This picture made me very nostalgic too. When I was a kid my grandparents lived in Walnut Creek and my grandfather used to take me hiking around there (Mt. Diablo I think). It's a good picture, and definitely succeeds at doing justice to a certain California landscape. Thanks Rich!
