Taken with M6 and processed at Shoppers Drug mart in Toronto.
Film is an expired Kodak Gold B&W and C41 processed.

I started to notice the pattern with some of the photos in a roll. I also tried different type of rolls. I suspect it's the lab's machine but need to confirm by trying a different lab using similar rolls.

I only hope it's not the M6.

Thanks.

definitely not the camera. i've seen this before in c41 developing. don't know exactly what it is, maybe reticulation.
 
Hi

I've seen similar effects, but it will vary depending on the machines your lab uses...

When I worked in one lab, we had an agfa machine and the paper would do this if the film dryer time & temp was off, if its on the neg, I would take a guess that its a drying issue.

Either try another lab, or if there a good lab, try them again as it should be picked up and fixed when they do test strips (ideally each day).

But most definately not the camera.
 
Case solved. It's the photo lab. I will contact them to let them know it's time to service their equipments.

Thanks!
