The crappy (Agfachrome?) slide has deteriorated so much, it's become a natural sepia. I thought it looked a pretty good effect. Might try to reproduced it on some modern shots I've taken.

Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop. -Ansel Adams

IT's the most famous checkpoint in the Berlin wall. It's the location of all the spy trades between the Soviets and US in the movies. Join us in Chicago on April 22nd (Click here for more details)

It IS just a snapshot really...nothing artistic about it, but the sepia and cracked edge effect is interesting.
