I went out on a cold winters day with a dozen film holders (no readyloads)and took a variety of shots. Froze my fingers and fogged the ground glass frequently but did the best that I could and kept shooting throughout the day. The next day I went into the darkroom and began to develop the film that I had exposed the weekend before. Much to my surprise the films were coming out clear. I went through another batch being extra careful, mixing new developer, and taking every precaution I could think of.
Same results with completely blank film. I decided to try developing the film I had shot the day before. The film developed but was very dense and seemed to have ghost or multiple images. Suddenly I realized what had happened. I had confused my film holders and instead of taking out the newly loaded holders the day before I had ruined most of both weekends shootings by shooting the same films twice.
