What a great idea and the perfect guy for the job.

'I'm a professional amateur'

'the character comes through, as long as you don't manufacture photos'

'I not required to do anything pretty, just to photograph things as they are - and that's always the best way to photograph'

paraphrased, but good stuff.

Thanks for sharing

The important thing, is to work.

What a master.

"I'm not supposed to do pretty things, I'm supposed to do real thing, and that's always a preferable way to photograph"

I'm going to quote that.

I raise the Glass, slurp !

of course being Scotland and all the rain and gale force winds etc. don't forget a wet housing for the Leica M because weather sealing is for lame DSLRs

a great video.
seeing the man doing his work.
superb timing in so many shots..
if Elliot can do wet darkroom,
why don't the rest of us?
in my case, lazy, bone lazy, bone lazy to the marrow.

Thought I saw a bottle of Macallan 30 yr on the table. Wow! Goes for $1400.00/750ml here locally. Wonder what it tastes like?

Nice camera. But Leica M7P? Has his name on the back!

I see he shoots the Cron ASPH also... that should settle a few arguments.

 

[TennesseJones]

Lovely little film!

All this guy does is take great photos. Enjoyed the video.

 

[Tijmendal]

Great! Thanks for sharing. Absolutely love his work.

An M7P would be a good idea. With the A setting on the old-style shutter speed dial, there would be no need for those like me who are used to the "new" M6 TTL/M7 dials to get confused!
