Up in the Lake District on holiday, we're based in Hartsop. Out for a walk with my dog and the light is playing ball. Pentax MV loaded with Kodak 200. Cracking shots taken, or so I thought. Picked up the Pentax MV1 in which I'd completed a roll of film but NOT replaced with another. Idiot. Never mind, managed a few shots today which should be good ones of the same compositions. Anyone else shot a ghost roll of film.
 
More than once either because I assumed there was film in the camera or the film wasn’t loaded correctly.
 
Me too, all part of the process I guess!
 
Ghost shot a couple of times. Usually down to me misloading the film (not engaging the leader in the slot and being in too much of a hurry to check...)
 
Reloaded a part used film and forget to wind on the appropriate number of times. Produced some beautiful double exposures :ROFLMAO:

On the only good day of the TPFC Glencoe trip! Mrs R and I went out across the ferry and round to a nice castle, back for some lovely autumn leaves glowing wet, for the last frames, oh, not finished yet? Couple more? 40! OMG...

I'd like to say it was a lesson well learned and that ever since I've checked and re-checked. It's mostly true, but field-loading under pressure (eg a group walk) is ALWAYS risky!
