Happy 29th Wedding Anniversary to Sue Ann and Conrad!<\/h1>\n

Just over\u00a0a week ago, Conrad and Sue Ann Spens celebrated their 29th wedding anniversary. \u00a0I contacted Conrad to see if he could give me a few photos from their wedding day to post, but so far he has only managed to find a couple and the scans are not very good. \u00a0So I\u00a0have put\u00a0one of the\u00a0photos into this post, and when I am able to get hold of more (and do my own scans!) I will add them to the post.<\/p>\n

I have known Conrad since junior high school, where we both played the cornet in band. \u00a0 I have known Sue Ann since college, she lived in the same residence house as both I and my future wife did our\u00a0senior year at Stanford. \u00a0The two of them met at the baby shower for my daughter, and over the years they have become some of our closest friends.<\/p>\n

Funny how different things were back when digital did not exist and all photos were recorded using film.\u00a0\u00a0Making copies was a considerably more involved process.\u00a0\u00a0You had to take the negatives to a photo lab and have a print made, which (if you were lucky)\u00a0could be done in about an hour, but usually meant having to wait a day or two before making the trip back to the lab to pick up\u00a0the print. \u00a0Or if you were brave you could mail your negatives to a lab to have the prints done. \u00a0But if anything happened to the negatives you were in serious trouble, since without a negative there was no way to get a good quality copy made of a photo. \u00a0I always gave a little speech to couples when they picked up the negatives and prints of their wedding photos, advising them to carefully store the negatives someplace where they could not easily be damaged, to ensure that they could have more prints made at a later time. \u00a0So different with digital and the ease of creating back-up files of all the photos today. \u00a0Though far too many people either forget or are too lazy to take that simple step!<\/p>\n

This photo was\u00a0taken using what was then state of the art\u00a035mm camera equipment, though the scan quality does not show that. \u00a0The actual photo quality is comparable to that of a mid-range digital camera now. \u00a0My current digital gear will give resolution as good or better than is available from medium-format film cameras. \u00a0I tried to clean this photo up a bit using Photoshop, but didn’t have much success, the scan quality was too low.<\/p>\n
