One of the local stores located in the heart of my little town. It's a lumber store and they’re under brand new ownership. To take this image, I used the very first camera I ever got, a Kodak 35 RF rangefinder camera that I acquired back in 1976. It’s the first useable picture I took with it since 1978. This is straight out of the camera, without any post-processing. Taken today, August 2nd, 2022.
