I noticed some yellowing on some of my pictures, what is going on?

That looks like poor processing. Probably the bleach-fix has not completely removed the silver.

You could try copying the films first, then putting a test strip in fixer. Wash thoroughly, final rinse in distilled water. The blotches may clear. Try copying again to see if there is any improvement.

I don't have a photo lab, but I suppose I could go down to the local photo lab and see if they have a specialist who can do it. I wouldn't normally go out of my way to try and fix this but this photo is on a film strip with another photo that I do actually want to preserve.
