2018 - Mamiya 645E / Ilford HP5+ - Charleston, WV

            Taken with a Mamiya 645E, Mamiya-Sekor C 80mm f/2.8 N, on Ilford HP5 Plus, home developed, and scanned with an Epson V600.

I think this was the first roll I shot with the 645E after I bought it from Midwest Camera (mpex) at their physical store in Columbus, Ohio. I wasn't a fan of the camera, so I sold it I think to another shop out near Lexington or Louisville, Kentucky. 

These 4 shots are all from the East End of Charleston, West Virginia. I worked at a restaurant here and lived in Charleston at the time these were shot back in December 2018. 

I found this roll which was exposed and not labeled in a box I had stored recently. My friend was kind enough to develop at home. Only 6 out of 15 shots were exposed and there were some leaks. Glad I didn't hold on to this thing! I ended up not going back to film after shooting medium format from 2014-2018 nor even 35mm 2007-2015. But, it finally sucked me back in. I just got an Olympus OM10 and a Mamiya RZ67 (was also my first MF back in '14)
