Leica Adventures
Influenced by my late grandfather’s 1930s photography, I wanted to explore an inherited love of nature and the unknown magic that is the world of taking analogue photographs; capturing light, time, space and emotion with my German grandfather’s 1932 Leica camera.
On my wanderings through nature, the Leica is my constant companion, photographing landscapes in a timeless connection between past and present.
After my grandfather’s death in WW2, my grandmother buried the camera in April 1945, for safekeeping from the occupying Americans. A small historic montage of this Leica’s history will accompany the exhibition of my photographs.
