Distant Light
When I was shooting the auditorium and coliseum, the boiler room was just about my favorite place in the entire facility. It was dark and mysterious. It smelled weird. It made unusual clangy noises. It was full of oddities.
So of course it was my favorite place.

Ooh, those clangy noises! Rewind 30plus years, and I experienced very unnerving clangy noises from within a ruined slate cutting mill in mid Wales in the mid 1980s: https://suejudd.com/2018/04/27/y-is-for-ystwyth-valley/

I could hear the clangs as I read your post!
Also: my first camera, purchased in 1977, was a Canon FTb. How about that?

Great minds! My FTb was bought secondhand from a friend’s father

I’d borrowed my dad’s for a semester because I had to take a photography class. That was the first time I fell in love with photography. That summer I hand lettered a book for a woman I knew and used the money to buy my own FTb. I still have it, but haven’t shot it in ages.
But, yes, definitely great minds.
