Street Photography & Creative Insights

Welcome

Thank you for stopping by. I’m Adam.

I am an avid street photographer. I’m fascinated by how people interact with the urban environment and the stories that come out of urban landscape photography.

When it comes to reviews, I only review gear I have personally bought, and share how I use it to be creative in the urban landscape.

Leica Rangefinder Fan

…the result is always 100% your own work, not the work of computers in the camera.

Camera Film Reviews

This is not the Ilford, ahem, Harman colour film I’m looking for. I’ve been trying out Harman’s Phoenix 200 film and it’s not what I was hoping for. It doesn’t seem to have a unique quality, rather it seems to be trying too hard to have too many of them...

The dream of the 90s is alive with Kodak Ultramax 400. I actually get rather nostalgic for consumer grade films that were available when I was growing up in the 1990s and 2000s. The results, as in the general look of the photographs that I get from these films is...

Maximum performance in a compact construction: the APO-Summicron-M 35 f/2 ASPH sets new benchmarks. What is new and special about the 35mm Summicron APO is that now we can focus down to 30cm to our subject whereas previously it has been 70cm. This is achieved with a new focus mechanism....

My Favourite Type of Photography

Street photography. Especially at night.

One of the things I love to do is walk around after sunset and photograph all the lights, shadows and look for whatever we don’t normally notice about what is happening after dark in public areas.
