The photos were scanned from 35mm slides that my dad took in the army while in Vietnam.  The original slides were processed at the Kodak laboratory in Honolulu Hawaii.  I had them scanned at Color Genesis in Atlanta, who did an excellent job.  Many of the original slides have turned blue, they lost some of their green and red components, and were adjusted as much as possible.  I edited them with Paint Shop Pro by Jasc Software.  Most photo editing programs will allow you to adjust the color levels.  You will notice that some of the slides still have a bluish tint.  Some of the slides were Kodachrome and some were Ektachrome.  If you are interested in having your own slides scanned or published on the web, and have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
