Hi tanzer, when you say that the developer tried to compensate during scanning - do you mean what i understand it today in digital term : he scanned it, and then put it through photoshop and raised the curve for more exposure? As in , can i give the developer an instruction to give me untouched raw, and I'll do my own post?
Or is it a more...basic level , one which can't be reversed? As in, whatever blue I see in that picture 4 right now, is in the negative?

HI Johnha,
it ...was err..colour print? I think. I am not aware of slide film.
I looked it up, and got an entry for reversal film on wikipedia - but it doesnt tell me whether what makes it a slide film is the development process, a special film roll, or a special camera. Could you elaborate on this ? Is it something I can go to my developer and tell them to develop this as a slide instead of as a colour?
Your explanation on the white balance make sense - and it finally made clear of the purpose for the 3 filter glasses that came with my helios a long time ago. Since none of my glass comes with these now, and unless i gel my flashes, i guess its correcting it in the scan then for me!
Would you know what could possibly have happened to picture 4? It was taken right before picture 5...

Hey guys! So i developed my first colour roll...fuji. I love the result- its not as flat as my bw that i processed earlier. Its with a different developer too, this was with blacks.
Anyway, while i love the result, a couple things stood out :
Pic 1-3 shows the range of white balance...was there a white balance setting on my k1000? or how do I deal with this? Or was this something to be dealt with in the dark room? In some cases my pictures were greenish, in some cases they were reddish. Completely weird. I have to say that the lenses may have been different, in each picture, but i am not 100% sure.
Picture 4-5 shows an even more confusing situation, how did my cat picture turn this way? They were taken one after another...most likely with the same lens. Any opinion on what went wrong would be helpful :)
