Sorry peeps. I scanned these and uploaded them to Pprune Pictures and albums but can't get them any bigger. the prints are 6x4".
I'm sure there is a way to get them bigger but I can't find it.

OPEN HOUSE it will have to be.

I can't see them at home - IE & Firefox
But can see them at Work - IE & Firefox

Sorry forgot some of you youngsters might not be familiar with the term although Kenparry was.
Remember when cameras were loaded with film which had to be developed?
A 'contact' print was a print which was the same size as the negative rather than being enlarged which meant with 110 film which was 16mm wide, it was too bl00dy small to see any detail and even with 35mm film it wasn't too good.

eckhard 20th Mar 2018 18:07

We used contact prints to check the navigation accuracy of photo-survey runs in the mid-70s. Mind you, the film was 10 inches wide!

India Four Two 20th Mar 2018 20:24

My first camera was a Brownie Box No. 2 (1901-1935). Quite sophisticated for its time. Three apertures, selected by a slide and one shutter-speed, plus a “Bulb” setting. It used 120 film, which Kodak introduced for this camera.

The contact prints were 3 ¼” x 2 ¼”, which was quite an acceptable size. I still have an album of my first attempts and my brother, who is a collector, still has the camera.

eckhard,

During my career, I had occasion to use vertical aerial photos and they were always contact prints.

dixi188 20th Mar 2018 21:27

Still can't improve the pics. (Need sons help!)

If anyone wants to try, the first pic has a line of F4 phantoms, the second one has 2 lines of UH1s and the third pic is of a B727 approaching the terminal.
They were all taken on the same day in February 1990, and it was about 5 degrees F.

Heathrow Harry 21st Mar 2018 07:25

try

User Cp on top yellow menu line above - Pictures and Albums - create Album - Upload picture - gives you chance to upload 3 jpegs at a time - once uploaded you can copy either the BB or the other link

Go to thread you want to post on - Reply - picture symbol and paste in the link

Only problem is that it seems to only allow 25 to 30 pictures per Album so you have to delete the oldies every so often

dixi188 23rd Mar 2018 08:59

No time to sort pics. so

OPEN HOUSE!
