I bought a new scanner, better than the 10 years old one that i had...so, from today there will be for some weeks a series of old images of the past 20 years, from Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Cook, Australia, China, Usa, Iceland, France, Yugoslavia, Greece, Turkey, Maldives, Honduras, Nicaragua...

Yesterday i had scanned some dozens of ten years old images about Vietnam.

This first one is maybe one of my favourite picture that i ever did.
I scanned the picture several times with the old scanner but everytime with bad result, loosing colours, light, quality.

The picture isn't good also on the original one, it was took from a running long boat, under a bit of rain on a canal of the Mekong Delta, with the 200mm lens.
Not easy at all.

Anyway, i like this image 'cause inside there is all the grace and mood of Vietnam and Vietnamise people.
That woman on the bycicle with a cool hat and orange dress in the middle of the forest....fantastic!

Ciao Paolo

A nice colour contrast, between the orange attired cyclist, & the verdant green jungle of Vietnam. Good sharpness & pov. Bellisimo!

Hi Paolo,
great hot. The orange and even in reflection between all that green. The relaxed pose. Fantastic.
Regards, Gerrit

Bonjour, mon ami Paolo,
Vieille photo, mais qui n'a rien perdu de sa splendeur, j'ai l'impression de ressentir la chaleur moite de cette végétation luxuriante.
Les couleurs sont superbes et l'ambiance parfaitement rendue.
Amitiés.
Philippe
P.S. : l'achat du scanner est une très bonne opération pour rendre vie à d'anciennes photographies.

Hi Paolo,
Excellent shot & perfect timing. The colour contrast is also very nice even though it’s a scanned image. TFS.

Georgios

You did well to capture this at this moment. The orange stands out well amongst all the green. The reflected orange in the water is a nice touch.
Best wishes

Ciao Paolo, bella la macchia arancione nello splendido verde della giungla, qualità eccezionale per uno scan, grande nitidezza e magnifici colori, bravo, ciao Silvio

Ciao Paolo,
Aren't you sure she wasn't a Dutch tourist passing by ??? ;-)))
Congrats for the new hardware, and as it seems judging by the overall quality of the image it works well, we can see it's pre-TE work for you have centered her so much !
Have a nice week end JY

Ciao Paolo ,

Giorgio

Gecnicamente ineccepibile, ottimo scanner, romanticamente sono d'accordo con te per la bellezza e la semplicità della scena e della foto, bravo Paolo, complimenti.
Ciao
Vinicio

Sarebbe stato fantastico anche senza l'acqua... e poi c'è l'acqua e il riflesso arancione!! Che bello, che scena da film. Avanti con lo scanner!!

Ciao Paolo
Very nice picture in this grren mentions, interesting touch of orange who contrasts well with the background.
Va bene.
Cheers.

Hello Paolo. Which for a wonderful photo. In the midst of the dominating green forest the woman in the oranges dress. I always admired the distinguished and elegant vietnamese women and their clothes. The photo has an impressing effect. A good shot in the correct moment. Best regards, Wolfgang.
