Hi everyone - I discovered some 4x5 transparencies that were a family member's first attempts at large format photography a few decades ago, self-taught. They look like beautiful photos, but one major problem. The transparencies were put into the film holders backwards. In other words, they were exposed emulsion side down! The overall effect when you look at them is of an image taken through a dark amber filter. Really too bad because the images are amazing - this guy backpacked his 4x5 into an alpine wilderness area and took some incredible shots, before he learned the right way to load a film holder.

Before he throws out these old transparencies, I am wondering if there is a way to salvage the images after digital scanning. Before I sit down with him to try to do some Photoshop magic and experimentation for hours, does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
CK
