my first roll of film 1 of 2

Never really did anything until last year with a camera except a snapshot here and there. Last year I found this odd looking camera at a yard sale which was a Mamiya c33. Owner said if like the camera I really would enjoy this other stuff. At the time I really didn't know I was buying a camera, and essentially a complete darkroom complete with some expired old cans of chemicals and some old film for 75$....So I took the stuff home and read the old kodak darkroom guide that was in his "junk" I then went out and shot off a roll of this expired film. Came home made a makeshift darkroom in my hall closet. Fumbled with the stainless reels in the dark and somehow managed getting the film on the roll. I ruined most of the images struggling with the film and this image along with my son are what made it. So here I am man of 38 now firmly hooked on this thing we call film. Thanks for reading and your feedback as I continue to learn this craft.

This turned out great. Congrats on getting ANY images never mind good ones-
A Mamiya twin lens reflex is a beautiful if heavy thing and something many very talented people here use for fine art work. You won't out grow it and the lenses are very sharp and affordable. I have the superb 80mm and a 55mm that's fantastic.

And I had the same issues myself when I started rolling film at 38..PM me if you're interested in hearing an idea that works for me.

Be Well and Happy Thanksgiving
