Kids, Covid, donkeys and street photography

We were both stuck inside for three weeks due to a nasty dose of COVID-19, so it was great to finally get out and shoot some street photography.

We both tested negative a few days before the Easter weekend, and still feeling the effects of the virus, we decided to shoot locally. The video shows us shooting on Good Friday, Saturday and Bank Holiday Monday. Covid fatigue got the better of us on Sunday, so we took a day off (we never do that!!)

We shot with our usual Leica cameras; Sarah with her M Monochrom, and I had my Leica M9-P. With the Monochrom, Sarah used her 28mm Summicron, a combination she's used for years. In fact, she won't use anything else!!

Friday and Saturday, I worked with the Leica 21mm Elmarit-M ASPH and 35mm Summilux-M ASPH. Monday, I replaced my 21mm with an old favourite, the Leica 50mm Summicron. The lens forces a different mindset, and I think it's good to pop outside my comfort zone now and again.

I processed all the images in Lightroom with my SilverChrome Profiles and Presets. If you are interested in these, they are available from
