My Adventure with my Leica<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Well it has been a little over a year since I bought my first Leica camera. I bought a Leica M7 with a 50mm Summicron \u01922.0 lens. Yes a film camear!\u00a0 I purchased it used on a whim more or less. Buying my camera\u00a0 was a kind of therapy for me. I was never a Leica fanatic and still do not view myself as one, however I really<\/strong> do like this camera.\u00a0 I guess that I may have been converted.<\/p>\n

Shortly after shooing I start scanning the web for all things Leica. During that searching for all things Leica I found this great site The Online Photographer<\/a> I have been following it regularly since. I highly recommend this site. It is great, informative, and fun to read!<\/p>\n

Well getting back to my year I had gotten away from photographing for myself, for a variety of reasons. Now I did not need a Leica to start shooting again. In my possession were and still are 2 very good and functional cameras a Rolleiflex TLR and and Nikon FM2. Sometimes it makes a huge purchase to jump start your creativity. Really I am glad I did buy this camera. Never having abandoned film and leaving it for dead, I am so happy to have returned to shooting for myself again. I do have to say I was totally blown away by the imagery that was produced by the Leica camera and lens.<\/p>\n

Here is one of the first photos shot with my Leica M7 and Summicron 50mm:<\/p>\n
