The Family Portrait

A beautiful lion family posing for a family portrait :o)
This is another photo I took 6-7 years ago with a basic 35mm film camera. A few months ago I sent a thousand plus negatives to a company to have scanned to digital. They did an awesome job, but the proces took about 3 months to complete.

The Family Portrait belongs to the following groups:

    Oh this is just too wonderful – what a superb pose – love the male cuddling in .
    That must have cost a fortune to have all these prints done – I might do that with some too – Liz

  • Lisa Jones replied

    Thanks Liz! It cost about $125 to do 1000. Lisa

    Oh that wasn’t too bad – they were going to charge me £1 for each slide I had ( abt $2 ) I did them myself but the clarity wasn’t there . Maybe I’ll need to take some old photos or slides to the USA I visit my daughter next Friday for 12 days.
