Really quite pleased with how they've come out as it was only delivered from a China ebayer the day we were leaving

hardcore grain, film technician blames quality of film, Kodak Gold 200/Canon Prima af-8

I'm analog photography amature hobbist since forever and I never seen something like this.
Film technician blames quality of film but I'm not sure if this is the case. Isn't this just a lot of micro dust?

Ektachrome weird issue

Hello Reddit, I come to you in a time of need.

I shot some fresh E100 35mm two rolls from the same batch with an F5 and 58mm 1.4, and send them to a guy that develops E6. Haven't had an issue before, but this time 1/3 of both rolls have these weird curved squiggly lines that in a weird way follow specific patterns of some tones of the film. To the naked eye they look almost like a matte surface of small specs. I've also attached a frame with light reflecting on the emulsion side and next to it the actual photo to demonstrate how it follows the shapes and patterns. I've never seen something like that, and it kind of seems like a really weird issue to be an emulsion defect. Has anyone heard or witnessed something like this before, is it possible that it's bad chemistry or user error in developing and if so how? I have an event I am shooting next weekend, and Ektachrome is my favorite and main film I use, but now I don't know what to do, because these two are unusable. Guy said that he used the same chemistry a few days ago on some 120's and they were fine, but didn't bathe any other with the two I gave him, so we don't have another random person's film as reference.

50 year old Kodacolor-X developed

I got a Yashica C off of eBay that still had a roll of film. After a bit of research it seemed unlikely I could get C-22 film processed. I developed it instead with D-76 developer and ended up with several B&W exposures. No idea who these people are but seems to be early 70s. The building in one was suggested to be the California Capitol. Thought this sub would find some interest that it did develop.

How to dispose thousands of 35mm photos

Hi All!
I inherited thousands of 35mm photos. When I say thousands, I mean 10 40 gallon storage tubs full. My mother got into developing her own photos and photography in general so she took pictures of every thing. There are some family photos in the mix but vast majority of pictures of people I do not know. Only good part about filtering through them all is they are from the 80”s but it is a chore.
I may digitize some but the vast majority can be disposed of in my mind. Problem is how? I am superstitious about dumping them in the trash and feel I need to thoughtful with the enviroment .
All suggestions are welcomed and my thanks in advance.

First roll ever shooting on Film SLR camera

My first time shooting on film on anything other than a disposable camera. Using the Fujica AX-3 on Kodak Gold film. This was a test role to check for light leak. Just ordered a repair kit to patch it.

Taking a photo - Art or a Snap?

I often find myself walking around and seeing a frame or a scene that I like but when I take the picture, it doesn’t live up to expectation. I see an image I want to take but it ends up looking like a “snap” or any old photo you may have on your phone.

I will often lift my camera to my face then change my mind and not take the picture, especially as I don’t want to waste a frame on something that isn’t worth it.

The attached picture for example (Full disclosure, it’s from a digital camera but that’s not the basis of the question) looks great in my head but I couldn’t transfer that into a photo. Maybe someone will say it’s amazing, maybe someone would want to frame it? I doubt it and maybe that’s what stops me taking the picture

How do I lift myself out of this? Is it skill, experience, editing or is it a mindset?

If the answer is Cartier-Bresson’s 10,000 photos then I’ll shut up and keep going!

What to do with five moving boxes of slides from the 70s and 80s?

These are mostly travel photos from river trips before I was born and some while I was on the trips to Central America. I seem to be in a small portion of the samples that I looked at, but so incredibly overwhelmed with how to even scan these which is why they’ve been sitting in storage for 15 years since I got them. 🤣

I’d love to digitize them and keep them but not sure how feasible that is.

Any suggestions?
