Hello folks,
I know I'm new to this forum, but I was hoping you guys could help me out. I have been developing and printing my own 35mm black and white negatives myself at home now for about a year and I have come across a consistent problem in my negatives. My negatives appear to have artifacts of some kind (mostly looking like scratches), and they are way too prominent for me to print a fine picture with. I handle the negatives as carefully as possible and I keep my darkroom equipment clean but the marks continue to appear. I was wondering if there is anything I am missing that could cause these marks to appear? Here are some examples of little string marks in the negative. They may be hard to see but they're definitely there.
Thanks.
