I just got back the scans of my first roll of slide film!

Unique Photo in Old City is able to do E6 film processing, which seems to be a... unique capability among the remaining photo labs in Philadelphia. (They forgot to mount the slides as I requested, though, might have to do it myself.)

@skyfaller @Maggie That location looks *very* familiar! One day around 1998 I walked up that same path and took a bunch of photos with my amazing new camera: an Apple QuickTake 150. It could only hold eight photos at 640x480 (maximum resolution), so I bumped it down to 320x240 and took a bunch. I wonder if I still have them.

@skyfaller @Maggie I remember doing E-6 by hand way back in the day – very challenging to keep the temps right, but it put slide processing within economic reach. I even had a small side job doing it that paid my darkroom fees.
