    Yep, that happens - we've all done that double exposure thing. Keep shooting, and mind those silver/black sheet holder slides.

    This is making me happy to know that i am not alone, and i was sure i will do something wrong, didn't realize i did until i saw the results, but i am happy that i've got a shot, it is not difficult as i tought, need more shooting and practice and it will be easy to shoot as usual with my other formats, time and patience.

    hehehe, this mistake became a good creative start now, i am so lucky!!!

    Well, i will keep shooting when it is possible, too bad i want to get another lens to shoot outdoor but i think i should be patient with 150mm, but i am worry about developing now.

    It's far more interesting than the ones I've gotten that are entirely black or entirely white!

    It's good that you want to develop your own B&W negatives. You can learn and correct your own mistakes but may not be able to do the same for a lab. I started developing B&W in 1971 when I got some 35mm negatives back with all kinds of dirt embedded in the emulsion. I figured I could do at least as well and have never looked back. I do all my own E-6 and C-41, too.

    It was was easy to do small and medium format rolls and then move up to large format. I think the most difficult part is drying the film without getting dust and dirt on the sheet. I hang them in the shower with the curtain closed and of course, the water off.

    Good luck with your learning. Keep posting your pictures. You live in an interesting place.

    Perhaps a mistake, and not what you had in mind. However, I think it is a really interesting composition! Keep at it, and do not be discouraged.

    Remember, the darkslides are silver and black for a reason; silver, unexposed film; black, exposed film (or use your own method).
