An entire roll of Portra 160 I took in Venice and Trieste has a thin red line through every picture - oh well! (Top tip: Portra 160 + Venice = perfect.) I'm going to take it back to the lab since I don't see the line on the negatives and it's not a light leak - hopefully it's something that happened during processing and can be re-done. So annoying because I really want to show you those photos...
The upside is that I realised none of the photos worked if I cropped them and cropped the line out - so my composition skills must not be too bad!
{Hydrangeas in Trieste after a Monday rain shower. (I retouched out the line on this one, but life is too short to do that 36 times.}

noooo! that's extremely annoying.
sounds like it is the lab - more red drinks whilst you wait?
The same thing happened with a roll of mine from Paris and a thin blue line. They re-scanned, all fine. Can't wait to see these photos!
can't wait to see them!
Funny, I always get a blue line. I think it's because labs hardly ever process film anymore so they don't clean their machines very often. It's probably not on the negatives!
Yup, it was their scanner - bit of dirt on it or something, except I got a red line, not blue. Most inconvenient but all will be well.
lovely image... i await more with eagerness! xo bb
