Black & white, and someone to watch (and to listen to)

I don\’t know if it was Mike\’s article about the new Leica Monochrome (Typ 246), and the links from his readers in their comments, but I imagined about having a black & white camera only. So I switched mine to black & white and left it like that since a few days. I knew that for portraits this can be very nice, but how about general photography? I was curious. So here are some, as always almost like out of camera:

Tuna the cat, May 2015

Gravity? What gravity?

Taraxacum (common dandelion) (in German, we also call these \”Löwenzahn\”, or \”Pusteblume\”)

I have written about Youn Sun Nah already, but here\’s another photo I took today. It shows the \”Concert\” part of a French/German TV station, and until October 18th this year, you can see a concert of her and her quartet of \”musiciens exceptionelles\” as she introduces them. Just look for this on your Arte channel:

\”Screenshot\” Arte: Youn Sun Nah Quartet

Or look at the station\’s site like here. It\’s worth it – if they offer this as a DVD one day, I\’ll buy it.

Which lenses did I use for these photos?

First one: M.Zuiko 45mm/1.8 fully open at f/1.8
Second and third one: ZD 50mm/2 Macro at f/8
Last one: Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25mm/1.4 at f/4

Thanks for reading.
