OK, the last 3 rolls have been developed. Film is Kodak HD iso200, camera is the aged Praktica Nova 1.
These shots were taken in a rather unconventional manner, and I'm glad they turned out as well as they did - I had a beanbag on a tripod stool (one of those little camp jobbies), a 400mm telephoto lens. I had the camera wound and focused for the corner, and just sitting there. When the bikes crested the turn, I reached down and pressed the shutter release. So far, so good. I'm surprised, as I said, that they turned out as well as they did, because I thought when I hit the button that the camera moved. Well, we were supposed to be working, not sightseeing!
Anyway, these are untouched. Straight off the scanner. What I want to know is why the discolouration on the right-hand side of the pics, because these aren't the only ones affected. In fact, it gets steadily worse throughout the film until it is almost black, then it reverts back to normal again. Any ideas, oh photoforum gurus?
Lastly, this one turned out a bit better! It's a flower called a Hoya, from my garden. Taken with 35mm lens and 25mm extension tube. I've cropped a tad and enlarged a bit so my fingers aren't so obvious. The actual flower is about 3/8" across.
Cheers all (and thanks for any sage advice!)
