you decide to leave early. home alone, so no distractions! great! gonna pick a nice wine from the cellar, grill up a nice steak and develop a few rolls of B&W.
get the bottle and stand it on the counter for later. get the steaks marinating. all is well. Load up the first 2 of 4 rolls of film. 2 rolls of acros and 2 rolls of retro 80s. at least thats what i thought i had......
well it turns out a week ago i took out the retro 80s roll from the bulk loader and put in a roll of provia. but i forgot to lable the film cartridge as such. so what i got was one roll of retro 80 and a roll of provia done in pyro HD. needless to say it didnt come out well. I should have stopped when i dumped the pre-soak water out as it had the provia pink to it. but i was on auto pilot and didnt even think about it till later. the negs are not salvageable for printing. i managed to get something via scanning from the provia but the retro was gone. oh well.
lesson learned, have a drink before and during film development. this should ease the mind and clear the head. at least the last 2 rolls turned out.
