Hi Listers
Wonder would you have any forensic thoughts on a rather perplexing image I
recently made with my rollei? I've attached the scan here
http://www.rollei-gallery.net/chatanooga/image-95531.html - .
Okay, I got dust problems and you can also see some strange white trace
marks. This was my first time using photoflo and I attribute these marks to
be drying stains from an overzealous application of it. However my main
concern is the general 'muddiness/darkness/crappiness' of the pic. The image
is supposed to be  a seascape on a bright sunny day.....but ended up looking
like a monsoon.
Whats intriguing is that only this frame (#12) and its predecessor were like
this; all the others were absolutely fine. The 2 shots were taken together
after an interval of no more than a few days from the first 10 pics. Film
was panF 50 + rodinal developed in a patterson plastic tank. This is a
combination I've stuck to since starting my own development and up to now it
has been fine.
