Scanning 8x10 Negs

Scanning 8x10 negs is long tedious process, it is one of those things you have to do but do not want to do. Finishing the scans will allow me to make submissions to galleries. I have been in contact with wonderful gallery in Canada that seems interested in my white background sex worker photographs. I need to make a submission of all available work for their consideration. If they they like what I send them and like the 20x24 prints I will send as samples then I will get my first one man show! This same gallery is planning on having a book competition I will enter these scans in that competition as well.

I will try over my coming week off to make up a mobile scanning setup, this will allow me to scan negatives during my regular night work shift when I have some free time. I want to spend my regular week off devoted to new photographic pursuits, not by doing old negative scans. By using the portable scanning system I should be able to find extra hours to get the scanning completed.
