Conundrum

I always think the Ricoh is good enough, but then I shoot the Leica. Been using a 50 year old 35mm Summicron on it and it’s fantastic.

La playa 30 minutes after sunset.

Wake up an onion. Sleep a tomato. Wake a tomato. Sleep a tomato. Wake a peeling onion.

Didn’t know and don’t care.

sounds great until it’s not.

I’ll take it over a gloomy day and shoot into the light.

High contrast black and white during golden hour is such a pleasing look.

I used to unclog human shit for a living. That’s my inspiration.

Knowing nothing or caring much about the history of photography and art is a blessing I think. I’ll leave you guys to name dropping.

Street Photography is odd. But it makes more sense to me now that I’ve realized why I’m doing it.
