   P.S. The colours were a lot more vibrant on my PC screen than they look on my iPad... hmmm.

   I know! My new x-tungsten album looks perfect in photoshop; but then, loaded and viewed here my pictures look overly vibrant, not a pretty as they really are. I wonder if lomography automatically displays our pics with an extra, vibrant glow... apart from that my monitor at work shows colors differently than my laptop at home. I suppose they all have different settings.
   Anyway Buckshot, this is a lovely album and I really appreciate the "how to's".

   Brilliant!! I wish I had had this idea before all our leaves had dried up and blown away. I must remember for next year!! Thanks again for sharing your brilliance. ;-)

   Great album Buck! The best way to align the film correctly is to draw a line on the film exactly where the film leaves the cannister. After you rewind the film just pull it out until you see the line again. Works for me anyway! (3 masks coming your way real soon).

   Great album. When I rewind film for use in another camera I never care about aligning. I like the overlap. If I don't want overlap I use a Nikon F5. Instead of pushing R1 and R2 (D2 (wohaa)) You just press R1 and rewind manually. You will see the digitscount back. The pics are always perfectly aligned. I tried the same with the F4 and it only works sometimes. Since you have an F100, This should be possible !

   @weleasewoger72: That's exactly the kind of advice I was hoping for - thanks a million! (And thanks in advance for the masks...!)

    @gauthierdumonde: I quite like the overlaps too, but it causes a headache for the people in the lab. (I still don't have my own scanner.) Thanks for the likes and advice - I'm gonna try Woger's trick first.

    Woger's trick works if you rehearse a little :). If you need your scans from a lab:; that's trouble. When you have your own scanner yo can decide where you frame it. I already shot a roll today !

    @gauthierdumonde: Me too - finished off the Mat test roll I started yesterday. Now I'm gonna shoot another Sparklesprocks album. I love holidays...! ;-)

    @weleasewoger72 and @gauthierdumonde: Well, I tried Woger's technique in my latest album and the results are in: www.lomography.es/homes/buckshot/albums/1905105-keyhole-spa… I swear to God I aligned that sucker to within a micron of a gnat's ass but there's still a very wide gap. I think the problem is that there's probably some slippage before the take-up sprockets engage with the sprocket holes. Will try this technique again because it makes inherent sense, but will tape the film leader to the take-up spool too, to see if that solves it.

    This sucks because I still not quite sure how to do personal responses! I forgot to mention I always tape the film to the take up spool. It's so much easier to align that way.

    @vici ha! Now, everybody know here that you're looking at your photos at your work place ! (a thing that, of course, a french guy like me will never do). ;-) @buckshot : for aligning the first shot without any overlap, when first loading the film, put a mark with a felt pen on the right edge of the first frame (the one that you must shot blind insofar as it had taken the light); at the end of the first serie, rewind gently avoiding the film to go back entirely into the cartridge; then reload the film in the camera, inserting accurately the sprockets so that the first shot will be perfectly aligned on with the mark that you once had made on the first-frame right edge; then shot again your film; then tell me whether or not this works inasmuch as I never tried before.

    Anyway, this is a fantastic album and an excellent idea that I will again steal from you! Napoléon - 1 / Nelson - 1

    @jean_louis_pujol That's exactly what I did in my most recent album here: www.lomography.es/homes/buckshot/albums/1905105-keyhole-spa… But it didn't work. Will tape the film to the take-up spool next time.

    I sometimes shot the first time in a panorama camera sprocket rocket then transfer the film over to me LC-A then no gaps but might be a problem for the lab, you will have to get a scanner.

    another great album you are full of ideas.
