Really like your pics. Do you scan it yourself?

Thanks! All of the medium format photos are low quality lab scans, as are the 35mm ones from February onwards. I'll be getting access to a proper film scanner again next month.

It does not look like a low quality scan, althought I see the images here aways at low res. Anyhow, I got a hp4050 scanner for me, not really happy as all pics come out looking like as if they were out of focus. The good point about it is the control over the colours and the possibilities, but it is impossible to deal with the fact that the pics looks blurried. Also, the lab scann does not makes me so happy, aways low res scans. Need to figure out a better way to scan my pics.

Well, I have noticed that the past few 120 rolls have been of noticeably higher quality than usual. It depends on who's serving at the photolab!
I'm no scanner expert, but is the HP4050 calibrated for film - does it have a film holder? I've seen discussions on Flickr where people talk about needing to have the films raised slightly off the scanner glass to get them in focus.
For instance: http://www.flickr.co(…)3733644632/
and http://www.flickr.co(…)5745975495/
One of the more common remarks is sandwiching the negatives between two sheets of glass then putting the whole lot into the scanner.
