Stepping Into The Past


Stepping Into The Past, originally uploaded by TomRaven.

I'm stepping into the past today. Photography allows you to do that; to capture a moment of time to cherish forever... or at least for as long as the media its stored upon lasts.
This shot was taken in early 1993 - 17 years ago - on an old film point and shoot. The Advanced Photo System (APS) film was sent off to Kodak who duly sent me a PhotoCD disc, which I just came across while going through a box of old CDs. So I uploaded the image onto an old Power Mac 7300, resurrected just for the purpose, and imported the PCD file and added the frame in Photoshop 5.5. Iv'e had a retro kind of day :-)

This sunset was taken from the back garden of my house at the time, on the edge of Findhorn Bay in the North of Scotland.

Now this light captured 17 years ago will live again, released from its digital resting place...
