Singapore Part 1
by 53weeks
The decision to travel to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur at the begining of February was not easily made. There were 30 odd confirmed cases of the Coronavirus in Singapore when we left for south-east Asia, looking back 6 weeks later and Germany has just hit the 60,000 mark with the whole planet in dire stress….. Looking back I think we maybe should have stayed down there! Stay safe folks and take care! Leica M9; Leica M9M; Summicron 35; Summilux 50; […]

Luftwaffenmuseum Berlin – Part 1
by 53weeks
The current situation allows me to get around to all the things I’ve been wanting to do for ages…… so here’s the first post in the Corona crisis. Here are a few shots taken at the Luftwaffen museum Berlin which was formerly RAF Gatow until German reunification. There are lots of different aircraft and a lot of military equipment on view from both sides of the iron curtain. Leica M9M; Leica M9-P; Summilux 50; Summicron 35; Elmar 21; VSCO

Portugal Part 1….
by 53weeks
Casting back to the summer holidays of 2019. These were taken on two trips to Porto and to Afife including the surrounding area (even with a day trip to Spain thrown in as well) . Well worth a visit if I may say so….. Leica M9; M9M; Summicron 35; Summilux 50; Elmar 21; VSCO

Israel Part Four (Colour) – Jerusalem
by 53weeks
If don’t do this everyday then you make mistakes. The girl in the gallery is a young Israeli soldier, I was so nervous that I made a mess of the camera settings and basically forgot everything I know about photography so the shot wasn’t as good as I hoped for.

Israel Part Three (Monochrome) – Jerusalem

I did have some qualms about taking pictures at the Western Wall, however I wasn’t there on the Shabbat and no one is recognisable so I don’t think anyone will be offended….. Leica M9M; Summilux 50; Summieren 35; Elmar 21; VSCO

It’s been a while….
by 53weeks
….since I last posted anything. To be honest I’ve been searching (as ever) for a little inspiration for a new project lasting 53 weeks and I can’t seem to settle on that “one” subject. It’s not for the lack of ideas it’s just that that simply I don’t want to confine myself to one type of motive or one medium or one of whatever….. Therefore the next few posts will be of things that I’ve been shooting over the past […]

I’ve amended my blog just a little to include not only the place I call home but also some of the more interesting locations that I’ve come across this blogging year.
