Have you considered doing your own scanning using your DSLR. If you do a search on YouTube will find lots of useful of advice and you won't need to be reliant on third parties.

Good luck.

Hi all

Going through very old family photos I came across a Glass 1/4 plate(?) negative. I took a photo of it with my K50 and converted the image to a positive. I don't recognise the harbour, does anyone here know the location.




Thanks
Mike
