My first few post-flight test shots were inconclusive due to photographer error, but the ultimate verdict is: the film was fine! Both the partial pack that was in the camera and the spare pack.

Which I honestly don't mind sacrificing a pack of film to; it might look cool!
Work in progress.
Upcoming exhibitions.
