I found some old glass negatives my late uncle had used. Too big for my 35mm scanner so I placed one on my wife’s light table, photographed it with camera on tripod. Imported to my photo program and used the negative command to turn it into a positive. Did a little more editing and liked what I got. My late and beloved aunt peg with her firstborn, probably late 1920’s. Those old view camera photos created some beautiful images.
