Looks like there may have been a light leak that fogged the film to me.
My first impression, as well, is that the film was somehow exposed to
light - perhaps at some point in the development stage. If you look
at the negative strip, does the green band cross over the frame
boundaries - or is it restricted to this one frame?
The band visble on the picture shown goes from top to bottom in the
middle of a frame, so obviously it doesn't cross a boundary between
frames. It does however extend into the perforated area of the film.
Furthermore, after closer inspection of the negative, I think that the
sky at the top of the picture is redder than it ought to be (I thought
at first that it actually had that that colour at the point when the
picture was taken.) And that redness, or greenness on the film,
continues into the next frame. It actually covers that fully, too, and
goes into yet another one. I'm not sure how much exactly this 3rd frame
is affected, though, as I believe I did some experiments with filters at
that stage (some coincidence...)
If it's restricted to the frame, then something happened to the
camera that allowed the light to get in through the lens in a weird
way. If there is a stripe going across frame boundaries, then the
film was fogged at some point when it was NOT in the camera.
So, do you reckon it is likely to have happened at the lab that
processed the film?
