Hi everyone,
I'm looking for some advice on some marks that I have on my film after it came back from the lab. Specifically, in this sample image from my scanner (unedited), there are some a few issues
1. There are the obvious bright spots that I'm guessing were some light leaks in my film holder, but could they have been mishandling in some other way? I've inspected the film holders closely and don't see anything obviously wrong. I load and unload my film in a dark bag, nothing too fancy, which is a little bit cramped. Does this look like a light leak from mishandling, something wrong with my film holder, or something else?
2. There are some vertical streaks (most visible at the left edge and right edge), and some other things that look almost like a water stain (at the left below the small puffy cloud). What would be causing something like this? Was it a problem in processing? I do wet-mount scanning and am pretty careful to press out the fluid quite evenly, so I'm pretty sure this was damage on the film. Any advice?

Thanks in advance!
