Ice cream with extreme cropping

In the background, the Albert Memorial, London, in 1982.
This is a small part of a 400 ISO Kodak 120 film frame. The whole frame when scanned at 2400 dpi would be 5308 x 5176 pixels (no, it is not exactly square!). This part is 3075 x 2306 pixels. (A 35mm whole frame would be 3400 x 2223 pixels.) This heavily cropped scan was done at 16 bits per channel (ie 48 bits) to preserve as much detail as possible. Not too bad, I think, for a relatively inexpensive, 10 year old CanoScan 8800F scanner.
