Hell House, Illchester, MD
Expired Kodak Ektachrome with a Pantax Program Plus
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Mar...
An old, partially overgrown concrete opening leading down a short set of rusted metal steps into an underground space, surrounded by moss, vines, and fallen leaves. Overgrown pathway with a stone pillar in the distance. Sunlight beams through the treetops casting shadows across the landscape A weathered stone staircase covered with dirt and fallen leaves, ascending through overgrown trees and vegetation toward a partially blocked path at the top. A serene forest path, flanked by trees and lush greenery, with a subtle hint of sunlight filtering through the foliage.

Woah, VERY crunchy.
Lesson of the day: don’t rush getting your chems to temperature then overshoot and develop anyway. (The developer was too cold and didn’t fully develop the emulsion)

My poor Pentax 645 needed viewfinder surgery 😢
(As these cameras age the two screws that mount the assembly come loose and need to be tightened)
