Photographs are an invitation to examine a moment in time— 'Hey, look at this!'

To maximise the impact of what you are 'pointing' at, you must only show the images that best illustrate the vision you want to share

@hannah_cassidy @Leica_UK I keep doing this with secondhand M10-Ps or Q2s on eBay.

As if somehow by sheer concentration and force of will I'll blink and they'll be £1-2k cheaper...
