2018, Beyond 200 feet of My House™, De Mello Palheta Coffee Roasters, Favourite, Inspiration, Nikon 28mm f/1.4E, Nikon D850, PortraitFor the last few weeks I’ve been posting mostly B&W film images. The feeble winter light here seems to paint every scene with moody and muted tones anyway, so why not just get rid of colour altogether? However, even I get tired of that after a while so today I want to inject some colour into the proceedings.
Here then is an image from De Mello that was taken in early December, when the light was a little more plentiful.

The Pianist, closer.
2018, Favourite, Film, Inspiration, Kodak Tri-X 400, Leica 50mm Summicron Dual Range f/2, Leica M3, Portrait, Print, Q&A, Scanner - Plustek 8200i, Teaching point, Within 200 feet of My House™I made use of the close-focus attachment of the 50mm Dual Range (DR) for this image.
I have always admired the build quality of Leica M3 cameras but like many photographers often found the 1 m close-focus distance too limiting. The DR solves this problem and gets me even closer than I’m used to when photographing with an M-series camera.
At first I thought that attaching/removing the extra hardware would prove impractical/cumbersome but in practice it hasn’t held me back. In fact, the engineering and design behind the Dual Range is quite well thought out and the system is simply a delight to use.
