Robert, treasure the shot with Mum, print it!!

Love the picture of your wife and iPhone.

 

I just did and I have to tell you...the scan just doesn't do it justice! The print is amazing. Taking a picture of it really doesn't convey it either but I did it anyway.

 

Thanks for the kind comments.

A nice view of that place in winter. I suspect this picture was taken on your way towards Andechs, as I seem to remember that after visiting the Beer-garden facilities in the monastry there, visitors generally are walking not so steady...

Adam and Neil,

 

It's not an "artifact or schmootz"  of film , it's normal and natural IMO

I have this on my pictures of sea or on land    like here

It's the shadow and reflection of clouds and light which gives it a little purple

Yes, it's normal.  It's an excess of ultraviolet light recording on the film.  I don't remember it being quite such an issue 30 years ago... whether it's the ozone layer depletion or a change in the emulsions is probably up for grabs; but a UV/Haze filter will deal with most of it.

 

Henry, Hepcat,

 

If you look carefully at the picture Adam posted on the top of page 750, you will notice approximately 1/3 from the left in the sky a brownish stain in the sky (and several others in other places). I cannot easily explain this as an artefact of any light or optics. As the film in question is the Cinestill 50, my guess is that this stain could be a remnant of the Remjet backing, that was either insufficiently removed, or somehow marred the emulsion side of the film. 

But as this is all guesswork, perhaps Adam, you could contact the supplier of the film and ask for clarification?

 

Best regards

 

Christoph

Henry and Hepcat - I think that you are not looking close enough at my image.  The schmootz is not just in the clouds, but it is ALL OVER the image.  Just look at the sand and you will see color variations in the yellow-orange range.  This has nothing to do with the light and everything o do with the particular batch of film.   

I am still up to my eyeballs with scanning my rolls and want to finish with all of the Cinestill 50s before making any definitive conclusions.  But so far I have scanned 5 rolls of this film and only one has anything even closely resembling this yellowish/brown blotches and bubbles.  

Henry - the images that you posted do not present the same issue that mine or Mark's do.  It is a completely different issue.  

Schmootz is schmootz...

Eventually I will be sending a note to Cinestill.  But I am off to London tomorrow for the week and will likely be delayed...

[Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS]

Well I dodged the bullet again this morning. Last night I got a call from the model to say that she had to work today so she wouldn't be able to join me for a photo shoot. I told my wife that instead of shooting the model we could go to the morocrana palace in Putrajaya and shoot that during sunrise. 

So off we popped with 2 backs loaded with film and spare film in the bag. I shot the first roll of B&W and went to change over to a color film so rewound the film and opened up the back to find it was empty...........what a frigging wally.........just as well the model canceled, imagine how that would of looked, put your hands there, bend your knees a bit, oh yes i like that pose then 12 shots later showing the model an empty film back and telling her to do it all again :(

Question

Is there a way to tell if the film back has film in it or is empty???

And not just the sky. There's a stain running down near the right edge. I'd go with insufficient remjet removal.  Definitely bad film.  What a shame..great picture otherwise.
