Zac

LEICA SL

Zac is a Curly Haired Sh*tzu. He was really unimpressed with the German camera. I did my funny trick to make him do the head nod.

Molly

Met Molly at the Apiary in Castle Donington the day after the passing of the Queen. Her owner Sally was happy for me to photograph her if her face wasn’t in the photograph.

Gilberto

Leica SL

Part of my submission to LEICA as part of the world needs witnesses campaign. Gilberto is deaf and plays for Rolls Royce Chess Club. Being deaf and highly skilled at British Sign Language (BSL) he is highly expressive.

Shot using one of my favourite vintage lenses the Leica 50mm f/2 Summicron from 1971. At the time this was one of the finest optics in the world but 50 years on it can still hold it’s own against modern computer aided design lenses.

Betty

Say hello to Betty. I went to Huntingdon Stores for some breakfast bits and met this lovely lady. Hopefully the owner loved the photo.

Note she was just tied to a post outside the shop door. Oh random fact the opening hours change from October. Check their page.

Zebedee

Leica SL

Zebedee was rescued from a cat café in Derby. He is missing a back leg so is in effect a tripod which is useful for photography.
