The original photograph was taken on Kodachrome 25 slide film... I have used this photo for a post card in my SHIP POST CARDs Editions ([email protected])
I also used to take colour negatives and black & white negs..., the colour negatives are the more sensitive, and its colour change easily...

nice to see you are still keeping on.
Very lovely photo this one, it's keeping the colours very well after so many years. (Maybe it's a slide?). I myself has problems with my old colour-negatives to get right colours, maybe I should have started with slides also?
Anyway, very good photo.
Best wishes from Bergen,
Arne
