Hi everybody

I did darkroom process since a long time but now I had some darks spots on my last negative, drop-shaped denser spots and I don't kow why.

I did a presoak without agitation, just with tap water. After, I did the development to a FP-4 with X-Tol 1+1, 10 minutes, 20 Celsius. I suspect the presoak too short. Maybe half of frames are OK and the other half is ruined.

Any idea?

Any suggestions are welcomed.

Could be light leaks or poor fixing. Throw it back in the fixer and see if that takes care of it. Show us a picture.
