This one started in the Standard Gallery but the more I looked the more dots I saw. Pulled the neg. and they are undeveloped spots. Was souped in a jobo so it had plenty of developer going over it. Any ideas?

Hate to venture this guess but I think it's the film.
Did you presoak? Use an acid stop bath?
I've used the 100 with diafine and no acid stop bath and found the same. Sad.

BEAUTIFUL image by the way.

When you hold the negative up to the light do you see pinholes that go all the way through the emulsion? or do the spots look like unexposed film?

The two causes I can thing of are dust on the film (which looks unlikely), or a stop bath that was too strong.

Hope this helps.

Oh, I forgot to say that, most importantly, I really like this picture-- its also the smoothest Efke I've ever seen.

Many thanks for the comments on the shot. I presoaked and used a water stop.In the past a bad batch of Fomapan let me know what pin holes look like. Strangely,previous sheets from this box did not show this so I will get new water and chems before I soup my backup shot
