1996-2000

Dressing up

I finally gave in and got a new scanner (Epson Perfection V39) since I had dumped my old one in Saudi Arabia. It’s a pretty cheap one and only does photos, but that’s all I need. It also takes a very long time to scan – it estimated 76 minutes for this picture but ended up taking “only” 11; however, at least now I can scan some of the prints I missed when I did this project in 2001.

This Kurdish merchant in Urfa had dressed Tim up.

Scanning is tedious under the best of circumstances. This image was worth it. The original photo was very well done. ~BV~
