Digitize old negatives of photos

 I am sure most of us have some old negatives of photos from our parents time lying at our home. I saw some posts that we can digitize them but after trying one or two things , they seemed difficult.

Until i encountered this app called Filmbox by Photomyne . It is simple to use and was able to digitize some of the negatives i had into colour photos. 

Links for app : Android , iOS.

The app is very simple to use . Just install, it gives instructions on how to create backlight (going to their website) , just scan and hold and voila you have your photos. 

My favorite podcasts

My favorite ones are : 

The Seen and the Unseen by Amit Varma.

This is a national treasure . Host brings some great experts in a long format discussion around 3 hours and is a bliss every time we listen to it. There are lots of mindboggling episodes. I loved the ones with Jayaprakash Narayan, Chinmay Tumbe on Migration, Manu Pillai on his history books, the one on Kashmir, the one on Maharashtra politics , the one on CAA, the one with Ashwin Mahesh, the one with Madhavan of PRS and lots more.
