OLD COLOUR WORK OF MANSIONS 1996 - 2000
A younger me at Gwylfa Hiraethog in 1997
Since I have a lot of time on my hands due to the Covid-19 virus I have found the time to go through the negatives I have of old visits to the mansions. They were taken on a cheap 35mm compact camera so the quality is poor. Many of these photographs have bought back a lot of memories. Many of these photographs I have not seen for over twenty years. I threw out boxes and boxes of photographs has the years pass, mostly due to moving house so many times (around fifteen times) between 1998 - 2004.
The images have been scanned using a negative scanner but I have struggled to get a good colour balance. I do not think it matters too much considering I only shot them for my personal use...
What is also surprising is that I quite often only took five or six colour photographs, whereas today, with digital I would take thirty or forty images, if not more.
