Ah, I missed that it was actual film - which I think increases my respect for your result, film being much less forgiving!

Out of interest, film you develop yourself, or just an apparently very sympathetic shop?

Thanks! I did some minimal digital editing afterwards, but I try not to "cheat" too much when shooting on film.

I have them developed at CameraNu.
They have a service for developing and scanning photos on film, and the actual machine to develop colour film happens to be located at the Eindhoven branch.

So I can bring in a roll and the scans get sent to my email within two hours.

Edit: I'll upload the original scan when I get home, so you can be the judge as to whether I cheated 😄

As promised, the original scan.

Basically I cropped and straightened it a little, and did some minor colour correction.

Well, that sort of tidying up is far from cheating (and I think I wrote ambiguously, to say the least, if I ever implied you did). And thank you for the insight into your work.

Don't worry, I don't think you implied anything like that.

It was more to show that I met my own standard for "not cheating", and that the result is indeed roughly in line with the original shot.

Actually, by my own standard the Schwebebahn picture I posted a few days ago is sort-of a cheat, because it's a composite of two pictures.
