I share your pain Tom.
When i took the darkroom class in 2002/3 i was unsure how my first roll would
go so i just
shot some
back yard stuff.
Well,only 1 of the 8 people managed to load and proccess correctly that
day.(not me BTW)
Glad i did
not do my good roll until class number 3.
Hope you can redo some of the ones you wanted to keep.
