Nikon FE with Konica Minolta DNG 200 negative film. Film washed by me. Scanned with my Konica Minolta DiMage Dual Scan IV scanner which has no ICE. These are probably a little grungy still.

Nikon FE with Konica Minolta Centuria 100 negative film. Scanned using my Konica Minolta Dimage Scan Dual IV scanner which has no ICE dust and scratch removal.
This was taken at dawn at Fuwairit. This is one of many pictures I have from one magical night. The sunset pictures from Zubara are from the evening before this dawn. The spectacular Velvia shots from Fuwairit are from this same dawn but about twenty minutes later.
This is looking across to some flares at a nearby petrochemical facility of some sort. The sun actually later rose from between these flares at about where the zigzag of cloud is located.

Nikon F4 with Fuji Velvia 100 slide film. Scanned on my Konica Minolta Dimage Scan Dual IV scanner. This scanner has no ICE feature to remove the dust and scratches.
One of the challenges I have had with this scanner is the inability to finely control the scan easily with the Konica Minolta software and the inability to get good results with Vuescan (in which I CAN control everything). Especially problematic for me were these very colourful slides. I have finally nailed a new workflow where I output to "DNG" format TIFF files. In Adobe Lightroom I have found that I can correct the poor colour somewhat by manipulating the controls in the "Camera Calibration" section.
As a final footnote, I am only able to get a good approximation of the colours in this scene by using an AdobeRGB JPEG. Depending on your browser this may not render properly (I try to always use sRGB). If the slide looks dull to you try a different browser, it may not be recognising the AdobeRGB profile.
Taken at Fuwairit beach on a glorious sunrise morning.

Nikon F4 with Fuji Velvia 100. This is a roll I had previously posted pictures from but they were scanned with my old scanner which wasn't very good. Since there are some really good images on this roll I am starting to post some rescans.
This from a trip to Fuwairait. The sky was amazing and I took a lot of wide angles. This is with the 50mm f1.4 again, however.
This is not the one with the most dramatic sky but I am just in love with the lovely light purple, almost lavender colour. I also love the dark but detailed foreground. This is nearing the end of this series.
