returning to black and white film processing


i almost blundered. after weeks of training with a sacrifice roll of film, i finally decided to take on a live one with a steel reel. it was a tricky thing to do because unlike the plastic reel, the steel reel required certain maneuvers to properly load a whole film into a developing tank. and, as i was feeding the reel the film roll got loose inside the changing bag. i tried to carefully roll up the film strip but i ended up scratching the negative. and here is one of the victims.
