I exposed some Tri-X last winter. Temperature is around -25C but I've been doing this for sometime now. Exposed the sheet film, as usual, using the Zone system and developed in HC-110, as usual. I've been using the same technique for 8 years. After developing the sheets I noticed some weird spotting on the negs. Upon closer examination it looked as if the emulsion was sort of crackled. It makes me think of a frozen lake when the water level suddenly drops and the ice breaks and folds over the protruding rocks underneath. I exposed about 10 sheets and only 3 have the spots, randomly distributed. I had sent some negs to Kodak 6 months ago and I guess they lost them!! Are there any theories out their besides ET's. I am including 2 shots. One is part of the original neg and the spotting is center right. The other is a cropped portion. Thank you for your precious comments. http://www.guyboily.com/tri-x-spot.htm Guy Boily
