Note the flecks and scratches. You can somewhat control the amount of this by the amount of film and other junk you throw in the tank. The batch that this still is from had lots of interference due to a problem with the fix, but it came out looking great! The still is from Joe's Dream. The clip is from Portrait of Greg.

You can somewhat control the amount of solarization by the amount of time you expose the film to light. If you are processing two rolls at once, you can somewhat control which roll gets more solarization by putting that roll into the tank last. This still is from some experimental footage. The clip is raw footage for My Way.
