First class documentary photography Andreas!

Some of the images are really outstanding and will stay in my memory for a long time


thank you very much Hari for your very kind and encouraging words!

there are two main hearts in me what photography concerns: one is to do documentary photography, though my intent usually is not to document 'the special', a special occasion or place but the rather the ordinary, the 'every day'. And secondly I wish to sometimes take something like an 'artful' image Wink

More and more of my photography is documentary though, sometimes I wonder what for I carry a load of old MF lenses and think that for documentary a good, modern AF zoom would be the better tool

On the other hand the CV 4.5/15 and f4/25 are so small and really impress me a lot!
( this better be shown at the MF section, but well.. ) two samples + 100% crops taken with the Heliar 4.5/15 on Ricoh GXR M
