Re: [APML] Not as good as the others, but my aurora shots

[George Anderson <georgea@cam.org>]

Thanks for the kind words, but the images are not as good as they should
be. My first "lab" no longer does "custom" work on the processing
machine. The machine operators are told to only use the auto exposure
mode and not to correct anything. All other work must go to the darkroom
for custom printing at about five times the price. I stopped by the
other lab I use and they are not taking in any new work as their machine
is broken and do not know when it will be repaired, I suspect they may
be about to close. So it is off to find a new lab or find someone who
has a negative scanner and won't charge $20 per scan plus $12 for the CD
(all prices in canookian bucks, divide by two for uncle sam dollars).
