One of my issues with my old photos is that I'm just now scanning them and getting them on the computer, and in doing so, I can see them in much more detail. This is a good thing, and a bad thing. For this particular picture, I love the colors and the ocean spray...but I now notice a bit of a discoloration or verticle smudge on the left side.

If you can't see it there, just click on the photo and you'll get a larger version where you can;t miss it.
However, in removing all the color from the photo, and playing with the lighting, it almost disappears. :)

If you're scanning a physical photo, it might be your scanner. Sometimes mine scanner blips and doesn't copy the photo exactly; most often I get hash or grid marks almost like the unit stuttered across the image instead of scanning it smoothly.
It's still an amazing shot. I love seascapes, in color or B&W.
I'll have to try rescanning it. I never really thought it of it that way, especially since the photo/negative itself is over 5 years old. Thanks for the tip!
