Red Oktober 2017

Finally finished the film in my Zorki. This was shot in October, but processed in December in a marathon developing session in my kitchen. Good old Zorki... While loading the film onto the processing reel, I found a tear on the side of the film which made it impossible to go onto the reel correctly, and after trying every possible combination I could think of (rolling from the front or back, film in upside-down or not, etc) I finally gave up and cut off the rest of the film and developed only the longer half. Thus turning my 36-exposure roll into about a 22-exposure roll! Must be some sharp edge in there somewhere which rubs and occasionally snags the film in its transport.
