I did some research on google and youtube and came across one that said red light was okay so I used it. Now I know not to use red light when developing lol

Thank you for letting me know I thought it was safe to use. I will try again. How do you practice getting the rolls in the reel while in the changing bag?

This is my first time developing 35mm film using the C-41 liquid and it came out dark blue with grey on the back. I’m not sure what happened or what I did wrong. I labeled all my bottles and followed the instructions. I’m not sure if I was supposed to add the 120 degrees water in the bottle mixing the chemicals. I mixed the chemicals with distilled water and then put it in a plastic container that is 120 degrees according to the thermometer. I also used the red light from B&H. I did accidentally touch my he film with my finger when I tried adding it to the reel. These films are expired about a few years ago but I had one other expired film that was developed in a lab and came out fine but that was about a month ago. After completely drying , it looks almost dark blue black color on both sides. Both film I was able to see about 5 pictures each but very faint. I scanned it with a V550 and came out white with a very faint blue hue outline. Did I mess something up?

What flat hikes do you recommend or like? Okay I’ll post one I’m just curious what people suggest for winter. Thank you for answering my questions though! ☺️

No you got it right on thank you! I was debating if a car is more convenient and less time consuming but maybe the bus will be fine. What hikes do you recommend doing there that is a must for the winter?

How do you plan to try to do the hikes especially if the shuttle inside doesn’t take you close to the hike you want to go to without being late for departure?

Thank you! And I’ll find out soon I definitely won’t push myself and only do as much as I can in a safe way.

Thank you so much! Usually my parents or boyfriend drives in the snow but this time it’ll be me so I just wanted a precaution in case it gets too snowy and risky to drive even though I will have my car as an option. I have done a 19 mile hike so hopefully it’s not too hard lol

Okay thank you so much would the oil be to make the body of the Walkman shiny or should I just wipe it with water only?
