The following story has some parts that might feel a bit strange to some, and yet will feel completely familiar to others. I guess that’s how stories go. When reading it, some will dislike me for some of the facts, while others will be able to relate and feel that what happened was not exactly easy. The story is true. And it has something to do with my cameras; with my M Leicas. I have been shooting with Leica cameras for about 15 years now. I own a few of them (some might think, too many). They are wonderful little machines, all special in their own way. They are almost friends, or maybe even family? Some of the ones I own are true classics, while others are maybe not very well known, but still very special to me personally. What some of the best Leicas do is to make one a better photographer by revealing how bad of a photographer one really is. Especially the M rangefinder cameras are known for that kind of painful revelation…….
