This morning hubby found a box of old photo negatives that had been taken in the early 1950's.....they were the large kind that they used to have; much too large to fit in the slide/negative adapter that I have on my scanner (HP 3970).....

So I laid 6 of them on the scanner bed & scanned as an "Image From Glass".......after the scanner did it's thing, I opened the scanned image in Psp & cropped & saved each one separately......then I opened them one at a time & then:

- clicked Adjust; Negative Image - this reversed my negative image & made it a "photo"
- clicked Adjust; Brightness & Contrast; Auto Contrast Enhancement (or you could do this step manually)

The results were amazing!!!.....all these old images were brought back to life!!......I was really impressed, but now I bet I'm setting myself up for a major photo project......LOL....

So don't throw those old negatives out, you might be surprised what you can do with them.....

I figured that if the Negative Image setting, under Adjust, would change a photo into a negative then maybe it would change a negative into a photo; & it did!

Psp never ceases to amaze me!
