   Very nice! I like the tint, I guess you scanned it as colour?

   Thank you! @adash Yes, I scanned it as color, and scanned from printed photo. Actual printed photos are bit greener than this onlne album's.

   Hah, that is very interesting, the paper is balanced for the orange base of colour negative film, and should become blueish, and not greenish, when exposed without it. I made quite a few experiments with paper negative. It's not completely the same case, but here is a sample with no filtering and daylight (paper also requires tungsten, and not daylight):

   and here is one that is better filtered:

   I actually used the orange film base for the second, together with an ordinary tungsten balance filter.
   XP2 actually has a clear base, and if printed optically, it should produce blue cast, like the first sample, and not green. Maybe the lab technicians did something sloppy after all...

   Well, @adash the photo lab developed this roll are using an analog printer, NORITSU QSS-2611, so if the lab were using digital minilab like Frontier, maybe the results were defferent. I like this greenish-blue monochrome photos, though..

   Don't get me wrong, I like them too. I am surprised that someone is still printing optically. Most labs here will scan the film and print digitally. And the morons still charge $3 if you want the digital files as well....
