Babies don’t get much fresher than this. In the film clips below, a certain someboDy (ahem) is coming home with mom from the hospital in York. Lots of great family moments in this one in Yiayia and Pappou’s Juniper Street house.
Pretty sure the other baby in this one is Timi, right? π
I’m really glad this film got converted to VHS when it did – in the scenes outdoors it’s REALLY clear that the cellulose was degrading very badly. You’ll notice lots of snowflake-shaped patterning on the image at the beginning of the reel.
It’s a shame that these are very noticeably visible, but then again, it’s not too distracting most of the time. (Plus I’m relatively sure I can fix this, at least frame by frame.) I’d rather have slightly distorted images than none at all!
And counting blessings where I can, again, the degradation is only at the beginning of the reel. The rest of it is just fine, very thankfully.
