Using photoshop to digitally manipulate your pictures is not in the spirit of APUG, and would be better suited to share at our sister site, Hybrid Photo.
Woww..I like how I got jumped on w/ both feet.
Ok.. I scanned the last 2 images I posted in color mode because I get better results tonally from a B&W neg that way . The resulting coloring appeared to be interesting. So instead of reverting to gray scale I left them as is.. the second one I toned down the color.
I am not trying to break rules. I do appreciate your opinions though and humbly respect your advise. I just built a darkroom and will be posting picture of her soon.
