A very nice link Sandrine, thanks for pointing it out. I was even more delighted to see that one of the pictures on this last roll is of Ara Guler, one of my personal heroes in photography.

Just a few weeks back I have bought a recent book of Ara Guler (with a foreword by Orhan Pamuk, the Turkish Nobel Price winner in literature). It is called Ara Guler's Istanbul and covers most of his major photographs of Istanbul between the 1950s and 1990s. I recommend it very highly. Here is the cover photo of the book as shown on the Amazon website:

Cem, thank you for bringing back memoeries of Istanbul. I remember leafing through Ara's work in
a bookshop waiting to buy a limited edition of Sinan's works.

To Mr. Mc Curry then.

You do rememeber his most famous photograph? Yes.

Nothwithstanding his ' Spirit of Place ' that shall remain his seminal capture.

And so it should. See what he captured in there and one shall understand what it is all about.

Yes It can be done, I am pretty sure that a kit used to exist and am ALMOST pretty sure that I already used one (in those years before 1995) at school....
I'll check!

K-14 process if I remember...

edit: found all these, sort them out...

But where to find the chemicals, it's another problem....

There is an informative post at the Online Photographer about the processing possibilities of Kodakchrome. Mike has also highlighted the picture of Ara Guler on this last roll of Kodakchrome, to my sheer surprise :).
