Hi everyone, I recently acquired an old 8x10 photo negative, containing a narrow panorama. Unfortunately, sometime in the past a previous owner put red translucent Sellotape over the negative to reduce the size of the photo. As far as I can see it isn’t on the side with the emulsion – if I hold the photo up to the light the photo appears the correct way round with the Sellotape facing me. How do I remove the Sellotape safely before scanning? The remainder of the image is still visible through the tape but obviously I'd rather remove the tape and scan the negative as one whole image rather than fiddling with the colours in photoshop to make the tape invisible. I've added a photo below showing the tape. Sorry if this isn't in the right place - I wasn't sure which category would be best!
