well, i knew it would happen sometime, but what is it and what caused it? i'm talking about what appears to be two thin yellow lines just at the bottom and the top of the frame - not emulsion side- running almost all the length of the negative. In closer look, it is a series of 1-2 mm streaks coming from the film advance holes,connecting to each other, and opposite the direction of turning of the reel. facts for you to consider are: - i do not shake the tank, i just turn the film in it 9is it wrong ?) - film was tri-x pushed 3200, and developed in Tmax. (first try) - after that film 2 rolls of FP5+ were eveloped and fixxed with the same very same solutions. there was no streaking on them so what could be the cause of it? i'm considering the chance of the reel being turned the opposite way, being placed the wrong way in the tank shaft. plus that it is definetely caused by liquid being "jetted" behind. and most important (although the yellow lines are at the non printable part of the frame, can they be removed by re-washing the film? gee! for the first time, it is really disconcerting...kostas =============================================== so... no matter what, CHEER UP MY FRIENDS!
