Playing around with my new Leica on my afternoon walk with Pifa…

7 05 2013

…it’s so light… so different… so manual… no autofocus.. no bells… no whistles… no programs (aperture and manual mode only…)… no looking “through the lens” (TTL)… you really don’t know exactly what you will get… rangefinders are truly different… and amusing… and you have to stop… and think… and frame the picture… not just blast away and later pick the best one…

Although I knew all this, from a technical viewpoint, it is still… ehh.. better in a way than I thought…

I can’t explain it… and I guess that is the point… the old adage may be valid after all: seeing is believing… 🙂

Today’s trip – 03.02.13

Not much to write home about, photography wise, but it was a nice 2 hour trip, and Pifa is very tired now and we’re happy about that… 🙂

Drammen River and harbour are freezing up – 20.01.13

20 01 2013

The days are short now, daylight is sparse, and when it’s finally week-end, the urge to finally get out and try to take some photographs are strong…

It doesn’t matter that the temperature is very blue… yesterday we went skiing in -25 degrees C… the only real problem is how to protect the fingers… other than that, all is fresh and nice… 🙂

Just some casual images from the harbour of Drammen… 🙂
