Cibachrome trio

Scanned from Cibachrome prints I printed around 1977. Images taken on a Pentax ME probably loaded with CR100 reversal. I had great fun in those days as I did all processes to the finished print. Still have all the darkroom kit.

So, two of these were shot at Cadwell Park. The third at the Manx Trials. I met Barry several times and the guy actually remmebered me as he got copies of my work-for free.

The prints are way better than these scans (Canon Lide 100)and are still in great condition.

Best regards

Ah, Cibachrome. That brings back memories.

Nice images, pity the scans don't do them justice. Have you tried scanning the original slides instead?

Good to see.

I've had some home made Cibachrome prints hanging in the hall for around the same time as your ones and they've kept Ilford's promise - they haven't faded at all - not bad for 35 approx year old colour prints.

I've still got packs of the chemicals and paper stashed away!

Great to see these shots, from this old timers point of view, thanks Gary.

Thanks chaps. Finding all of the slides is turning out to be an issue. Not too happy that they were not where I remember! They are here somewhere?

Best regards
