Tonee,

I like it better in black and white personally. And I like the last pose the best.

BTW, what is Ektachrome? lol. Cool edge. :)

according to our friend Wikipedia:

Ektachrome is a brand name (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brand) owned by Kodak (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak) for a range of transparency (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversal_film) still and motion picture films (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_film) available in most formats, including 35 mm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/35_mm_film) and sheet sizes to 11x14 inch size. Readers familiar with old National Geographic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Geographic) magazines will recall the distinctive look of Ektachrome, used for decades for color shots where-ever Kodachrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodachrome) was too slow. [1] (http://photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00DAcU)
Ektachrome, initially developed in the early 1940s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1940s), allowed professionals and amateurs alike to process their own films. It also made color reversal film more practical in larger formats, and the Kodachrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodachrome) Professional film in sheet sizes was later discontinued.
Ektachrome, unlike Kodachrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodachrome), was a product that small professional labs could afford equipment to develop. Many process variants (designated E-1 through E-6) were used to develop it over the years. Modern Ektachrome films are developed using the E-6 process (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-6_process), which can be carried out by small labs or by an amateur using a basic film tank and tempering bath to maintain the temperature at 100°F (38°C).
Although the Ektachrome name was once associated with both amateur and professional films, Kodak, as of 2006 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_of_2006), uses the Ektachrome brand for professional films. Consumer Kodak E-6 films are now branded Elite Chrome.
Ektachrome film was used when shooting part of the 1999 film Three Kings (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Kings_%28film%29) and cross processed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_processing) to give a unique appearance.

Never heard of it. lol. Actually, I processed quite a bit of it in college. 1984-85. I do NOT miss the darkroom at all!!! Best thing I did was go totally 100% digital capture in the year 2000. The labs were not ready for it then and goofed up a lot of things, but I still loved it and was so happy to get rid of film!
