Subject: query from the Blake Archive

We're confronted with a set of over-exposed transparencies here at the
Blake Archive. The scans we're getting from them are much too bright and
cannot be easily color-corrected in Photoshop. We'd hate to have to
shoot a whole new set of transparencies, but it may come to that. If
anyone has experience color-correcting images scanned from
transparencies and has dealt with a similar problem in the past, could
you please write me backchannel and I'll describe our situation in more
detail?

(Note: We're working with a Microtek Scanmaker V running Microtek's
ScanWizard software (3.1.2PPC) on a Macintosh G3.)

Thanks, Matt
