If you're referring to one of mine, then, no, they're all the right way up :angel:

I like a story behind a picture too. For instance this one..

Snowdonia%2520sheep.jpg


A whiteout in Snowdonia. I've never seen conditions like it before or since. This picture makes it look quite calm but it wasn't and I risked frostbite fiddling with big mitts, lenses and caps. Then when I turned around the party I was with had disappeared as had the footpath and tracks. Took me a while to catch up.

Then one day when I was showing this slide I scratched it, badly. This was pre-digital days and I was pretty devastated. Fast forward 20 years and finally with the advent of digital and me buying into it, I was finally able to restore it back to how it was. I'll edit this and put the scratched version next to it.

For me the pictures I like always tell a story and I always like to hear the story behind a picture.

I'm also aware I could do more with it but as it's a slide I've not done anything but colour balance, contrast and some sharpening.
