Sometimes things don't work out the way you planned. Sometimes you end up cooking your film to death in dektol til it's so dark your scanner can't see it as negative film so you have to scan it as slide film and invert it afterwards, adjust curves, levels, contrast etc... Sometimes you just have to say, "Oh well, I won't do that again...Or maybe I will. Maybe I'll do it on purpose next time." ...Happy accidents and all that.
