Picturing Venice with Agfa BW Scala in 1981

Português:
Em 1981, nós (com Magi, minha esposa naquele momento e seus pais) fizemos uma viagem pela França, Alemanha, Suiça e Itália. Uma das cidades visitadas foi Veneza. Era final de abril e, portanto, a cidade ainda estava relativamente calma. No que diz respeito à fotografia, eu usava uma Olympus OM-2n para slides e uma OM-1n para PB. Acredito que as lentes utilizadas foram as Olympus Zuiko 21/3.5, 35/2 e um zoom Vivitar 70-150/3.5. Ao invés de fazer slides coloridos, utilizei um filme diapositivo PB produzido pela Agfa, chamado Scala. Agora, 2019, Veneza está sofrendo com inundações cada vez mais frequentes e fortes e imaginei que poderia haver interesse em apresentar essas fotos. Os slides foram fotografados com a Olympus digital E-M1 II e sua lente macro 30/3.5. As fotos foram então tratadas no ACDSee, onde apenas ajuste de contraste, brilho e reenquadramento foram efetuados sem qualquer alteração de conteúdo (mas com muita limpeza de fungos).

English:
In 1981, we (with Magi, my wife in the moment and her parents) travelled in Europe passing by France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. One of the visited cities was Venice. It was end of April and the town was calm, not totally crowed. As photography aspects, I was using an Olympus OM-2n for slide color and an OM-1n for Black and White (BW). If I am not wrong, my lenses were the Olympus Zuiko 21/3.5, 35/2 and a Vivitar zoom 70-150/3.5. Instead of color slides I used the Agfa Scala BW diapositive slide film. Now, in 2019, when Venice is suffering more and more with floods, I thought that would be interesting to present these 1981 photos. The slides were photographed with a digital Olympus E-M1 II and the Zuiko macro lens 30/3.5. The pictures were treated with ACDSee with adjustments of brightness, contrast and cropping (and much cleaning) but their contents were not modified.
