My favorite shot from the roll. Loving this location lately too!

Lux Lumen Leica Lover

As you all know I am not the biggest fan of Leica’s even though I have never actually used one before and I’m fully aware that disliking something based on a few peoples representation of it (Joe Greer professing that the Leica M6 will save film photography… lol) is tarring all Leica users with one privilege brush stroke.

Plenty of Leica owners and users have saved their hard earned dollars to finally purchase one or maybe been handed one down from family and tbh however you acquired your Leica is you biz and I am not one to judge the person by their camera…most of the time anyway.

Despite being dubbed “Lucy Lumen Leica Loather” by the I dream of cameras podcast hosts and Matt Murray of Matt Loves Cameras, I don’t loathe them but they are not a camera I aspire to own or use. Ironically my partner would give a vital organ to own a Leica and seems to truly believe it would enhance his quality of life, his work and his general photography experience. Is this true? Today we find out…
