Sepia lake

One of the constant struggles of scanning is wether to use the colour setting or black and white. There are many choices, resolution versus reality and so forth. this is one of the few that is left sepia. It is also one of the frailest, being printed on more than paper thin fiber. So thin in fact, that I was afraid that the scanner would ruin it. Thankfully it did not, and we have this image. I love the old fashion dock and the old kayaks, it makes it so calming.

Joan

Here is Joan. That is all we will ever know about her. Thats unfortunate, but that is the case. However, there will be more of her coming next week. This photo was originally sepia, but due to scanning issues this is the best you'll get. This photo was originally an inch by half an inch. In other words, its tiny! But even with that, you can still see that Mona Lisa smile.
