Bio

I am a retired corporate Leader whose full-time avocation is now Black and White Photography. Having begun my Photography Journey in Color, I decided to dedicate myself to Monochrome shooting by selling all my camera bodies and lenses and making Mt tool of choice the Leica Q2 Monochrom. Exploring the Black and White world in Japan where I now live, my preferred genres are Architectural, Street, Macro and Documentary Photography. I am disabled but not unable and live by the old Japanese proverb..."Fall down 7 times, Get up 8 times". If you're not shooting BNW Photography, you're only seeing half of the picture 📷🖤‼️
