These old mopeds have made a sort of comeback in San Francisco, at least I keep seeing them more frequently. This Motobecane was at the corner of 24th and Hampshire, and I took this pretty early so i had to shoot at 1/25 and wide open. The light in the Mission doesn’t get bright enough until right near 8am.
I decided to start doing full resolution scans of my Morning/Mission images at 3200DPI. That yields ~350MB files, which become nice and sharp as I resize down to web-viewable proportions. I’ve also seen some bad newton rings as well, as a downside. I moved my scanning from the seldom used office to the living room hardwood floor, where the dust is actually much less. My scans are coming out fairly dust-free.
As I start to go my images I’m realizing some types of images I want to add to the set, so I think once I have gotten caught up with my film development I will go through another phase of shooting.
Magical!
