My father took these during our three-year stay in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa (Ivory Coast). He used an Olympus OM-1, shot everything manually, and developed his film in a makeshift darkroom in our house. I was born in 1976, so I wasn't more than 3 or 4 during this time. My sister Bethany was born there in 1979.
