Inexplicable

Very puzzled by this one. I took a Voigtlander Bessa out for the first time, loaded with Portra 160 and high hopes. Sadly, the roll was pretty much a failure - nothing like as sharp as the roll I shot at the same time on the Zeiss Ikon Nettar. But I'm sharing this one because of the nature of the failure: I count at least 4 exposures. How is it possible to forget to wind on that many times?!
