    Still pretty lo-res pics but as I was messing about with this on the dining table my wife asked me if the light box she uses for cross-stitch would help? Well hell yeah, the damn iPad keeps on locking and the light turning off and it was a pretty shitty light source anyway so she dug that out.

    At the same time I also remembered that we had a phone/ipad holder in the cupboard so I dug this out so that could do away with most of the hacked stuff in the first post and simply place the slide on the light box and then take a pic.

    I also realised that the first slide I had grabbed of my dad was probably a poor choice being very dark so I chose another slide in full daylight taken on a family holiday in 1975.

    Again this is post cropping.

  • ..looks great! 🙂

    One piece of advice - try to get as close as possible (as close as your phone's camera is able to focus on the slide), so you have to crop (waste) as little as possible 👍
