I have printed pairs from the outside negatives. Well, I should say a
local one hour lab did them for me. I simply explained what I wanted,
and they were thrilled to have something that wasn't mind numbly boring.
they loved doing it! It can't hurt to ask people at the labs near you.
One piece of advice, don't go during busy times. they will be much more
