[Leica] My early work 1956 - 1965 - Today year 1958

I found your early images absolutely fascinating, thank you for sharing. Your talent at such a tender age is very apparent.

It is interesting that you were using the Zeiss 50mm Sonnar f1.5 which basically is the same lens as I have been using with great success. I am possibly selling mine as I have just acquired a Summicron-M f2 which arrived yesterday.

Just one question if I may - this is in the Franco period, were there any restrictions on what you could photograph as a private individual in those days? I have just watched a 3-part series about the Franco years, and it was certainly not the best of times in Spain.

Best wishes (as always)

Gerry
