#1 First Post - A journey of slow photography.

in #leica7 years ago (edited)

I have an obsession of photography, particularly in vintage lenses and Leica gear. Starting this blog to tell my journey in photography.

Learning to take photos with an analog Praktica MLT5 at my early teenage years, I love the darkroom, the chemical smells, the photo slowly appearing on the print after the exposure. A good old time of slow photography.

When digital photography arrived, the unlimited number of captures gave me freedom to practice. The early limitation of resolution and dynamic range helps the creativity in using the medium, experiment with capture and post-processing methods. Fast photography is immediate, and a little more disposable.

In recent years I enjoy adapting vintage lenses on digital cameras. Old lenses render picture differently and draw the world in a more romantic way. Started working with a Leica M10 this year, I am learning to see the world through a rangefinder. Let's say, try to slow down again.
