Travis4567, I know nothing about the camera used, film, or the process required to get the resulting negative, but this is a fine view of a time now past. I really like the house amidst the different shades of green throughout the image. Well captured and processed.

Thanks Sergio. I'm really having some fun exploring my old negatives and being able to work with them with digital software.

I like the look, was it the film or the scanner that gave the graininess? I so want to visit Ireland.

I just finished scanning all my slides and negatives I own from years past, 1 at a time, and I too am enjoying going back and being able to Re-porcess them digitally myself.

I like the saturated greens. Is that due to the film used, or the post-processing in Lightroom?

A very nice photo.

The graininess is from the film which at ISO 400 was considered fast 25 years ago. I noticed an increase in the grain as I pushed up the clarity in Lightroom. I did push the saturation of the greens in pp.
