In April 2005, I made a bunch of photos on Dublin’s recently opened LUAS tram network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loaded Fuji Sensia II (ISO 100) into my Contax G2 rangefinder. Although I exposed the photos using my normal formula, the roll was returned to me uniformly over processed. This resulted in substantially lighter slides than I’d expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite this problem, there was relatively little data lost. I scanned some of the slides the other day. I was easily able to restore this image by making some basic corrections to overall exposure, highlight and shadow detail, plus minor color corrections. Both the original over-processed chrome (too light) and the corrected version should appear below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
