It could be a light leak but I suspect there was not enough chemistry to cover the film. Would you please post the negatives.
 
And not seeing the negatives it is even harder.
Just pick a sheet of paper, put strip of negative with defects over it and put them against a window. Pick some digi device and take a pic.
Thanks.
 
don't think it is because its not uniform on all shots. Im using a Fuji Gs645 i.e. has a bellows.

The good news is it may be 'you' let the film paper slacken off and you were not in the shade.

The paper needs to be taught,
You need to be in a shop door way or under a leafy tree.
 
Xmas nailed it. Roll film should be handled in the shade, especially when removing it from the camera. Slack should be removed from the backing paper, but don't clinch it too tightly. Store the film in a fairly light-tight container until processed.

You're welcome!
Now you see why one needs to see the negative. It could have been a light leak in the camera, but it isn't.

I think you may mean "taut" rather than "taught".

But I like "taught" too.

Yes the paper needs to be taut, I can be taught, however all things considered I would rather be "tight". :munch::munch::munch::munch::munch:
