Problem when developing 2 rolls at a time?

[Indecisive_Moment]

Hi There,

I'm new on the forum but have been checking the website out for a long time. Photo.net was too mean for me.

I'm posting because I need some advice. I just developed 2 rolls of 35mm film together in my Universal Paterson tank for the first time. Until now I only processed one roll at a time.

I'm scanning the negs now, and one of the rolls looks very strange. Foggy in some areas. I was sure I had done everything right.

I'll attach one of the images:

Any ideas what mistake I could have made?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Claire

I think a few more details, agitation, etc., would help. I love the shot. A few more steps and the two ladies with the ice cream would have been perfect.

It doesn't have to be something wrong with the developing, Claire. Are other frames also affected?

Do we call you Bartier-Cresson?

Its uneven developing, you can see it especially along the bottom edge where there's an area that's too bright. You probably didn't agitate enough.

It really looks like uneven developing. Maybe not enough volume of developer as well.

Do you know if this was the top roll in the tank? I don't recall the amount of developer stated, but I use 800ml in a Paterson tank designed for 2 35mm reels. Even if I only load 1 reel. Developer is cheap. Too much can't hurt.
