Were you unsatisfied with your exposure? Timing? Angle? The entire thing? Give some details and hints! Your mind, and mine, want to know 🙂
I have had time to think. Selling the equipment isn't the answer. I think my real thought, as many have said, was that roll was a, "Complete and total waste of time, film and money." There. That's out of the way.
Where did I go wrong? Let me count the ways.
1. Wrong equipment. I forgot about this particular opportunity & left the body & lens I wanted to use at home.
2. New film. Kodachrome 200. Never ever used it before.
3. Didn't use my Weston meter enough.
4. Backlit scene. Not my favorite, but I didn't have a lot of choice. Didn't open up accordingly.
5. Didn't bracket. No excuse on this one. See #3.
6. Didn't move around at all.
Exposures 17-36 are terribly underexposed as a result of #3 & #5.
Did I leave anything out?
