Office portraits, 1984-vintage

Under the stairs at my house, I have a box of negatives that I inherited in 2001 which go back to the 1970s.

In the cupboard in my study is a film / slide Scanner.

So I dug out some of the old films, but sadly not all of them were stored particularly carefully and so some of them are a little damaged.

I picked a few interesting candids of people working in an office to scan, mainly wanting to familiarise myself with the correct techniques for scanning B+W negatives. (Fingers crossed this is something I plan to be doing more of in the future)

The results are like a time capsule. Whilst not particularly captivating photographically (most lit with direct flash, and the subjects have that unflattering "deer-in-headlights" look) they are an interesting commentary into how much has changed in the last 26 years.

Depending on the number of views this set gets, I may add to it. I am sure there are more interesting negatives in that box...
