back to the future!

So, I've taken the bold decision to go back to a rangefinder camera system. Sony gear with hundreds of features and buttons to match, has been replaced with an older but in my view classic and simpler camera system, and the lenses are tiny by comparison. A slower, more considered approach is now required which hopefully will force me into a different creative mindset  and will certainly reduce the number of images I take and therefore post-process; not a bad thing!   Follow my progress over the next 12 months as I adjust to photographic life without autofocus, image stabilisation and face detection et al!

first pictures

My camera is a 7 year old Leica M10 and initially I have bought two lenses, a 35mm f2 Leica Summicron which I will use as a general lens and for street photography, and a Zeiss 25mm F2.8 wide angle lens which will be used mainly for landscapes.  These images were taken on a rather dull afternoon literally one hour after the camera arrived.
