Living in Derby UK. Senior engineering manager at Rolls Royce (aero engines not cars);sometime visitor to most US aerospace companies. Photographic interest started when kids came along, and grew with them. A self confessed equipment freak who also takes a lot of pics. Caught Leica bug 12 years ago (M4P). Three brief periods of remission (defected to Nikon, Canon and Olympus in turn) but now incurably infected with Leica M. Current gear: 2xM6, 35 summilux asph, 50 noctilux, 50 elmar(latest), 90 elmarit, 135 tele-elmar, viso 3, 280 telyt. Most work in B&W, own darkroom, (learned all basics from my then 13 yr old son, who still takes and prints a much better pic than me). Informal portraits of family and friends, plus assignments for wife's school. Also enjoy taking colour negs with wife's EOS 50E and 75-300IS which she calls her "wobblizer" lens. It really does work! How about it Leica?!
