Mansions in the Fading City of Cairo, Illinois
Cairo, once a thriving river town of over 15,000 people feels like a ghost town with less than 3000 people and many abandoned buildings and dilapidated structures. Many wonderful historic buildings have been lost to time.
We did find a few old mansions holding on to a different era. The street, Washington Avenue, where these homes are located, was once called Millionaires Row.

New Yashica 120mm Test Shots
I recently bought a refurbished Yashica MAT 124, 120mm Twin Lens Reflex Camera. These have a much larger negative than 35mm and I have been told these were the go to cameras for medium format photography. It has 2 lenses, one you look through and one that exposes the film.
I love black and white landscapes and I still think you get a more unique image shooting with film, plus it adds a bit of a challenge.
The first 2 rolls I shot were on generic, cheap film and I got some good results. Now that I know it works I an get a little more serious…
