Coffee and Photography is one of the best combo ever! All you need to do is to seat, sip and take pictures. It is also crazy how much you attract people around you, people are curious about you and what you do, it is for sure a great way to socialize and educate people to the best of my knowledge about photography. People in general want to step up from taking pictures with an iPhone which is a very positive thing though. I am so lucky to have that hobby. Thank you for the video.
Yes, it can be pretty simple and comfortable 🙂
Early Morning = no people, but so many trucks! 😂
We came in from Japan to Paris, so that was going from silent and orderly to very noisy city, Then next London Soho, which was 3x noisier and 3x faster than Paris. In that context, a few trucks every now and then is silence 🙂
I’m always wearing my camera on bicycle rides where my destination is often my favourite cafe/bakery. I can take different routes to get there so different scenery (landscapes) but always a double espresso is my reward along with some nice photos! Appreciate your tips about time of day, weather, season etc … that variety lets me snap the same scene (tree for example) but with new and interesting results each time! 📷😄
Yes, exactly. Different routes is the key 🙂 I never believed in bicycle and photography until Layla forced me to bicycle Chicago. It really worked very well!
Great ideas and tips Mr. T. This is why you are the greatest! 🐐
Nice Belstaff jacket.
Thank you.❤
Coffee and cameras! Yes✌️🇦🇺
Love the outro, haha!
Great ideas….. thank you!
Welcome 🙂
Leaving the "post-credits" scene at the end was a great idea. I laughed a lot.😂
Excellent video.
About going out early morning or late evening, I am a bit hesitant doing that because of my fear of being mugged (even during the day I sometimes get anxious when people notice my Leica). And I’m normally not easily scared. Have you never ever had a bad experience in big cities like London?
👍🇨🇴
Always wear a camera and don't let your groove become a rut. ;o) Tak.
Thank you to you for sharing your passion. What do you do to protect your Leica in hard temperature conditions like rain and snow ?
I frankly do nothing. I know Leica can repair anything, and they do. So they fix it without much expense if you scratch a lens, bang up a camera bottom, etc. Having said that, I never had fails due to water. Only a shutter release was sticky on my M9 for two days after an hour of shooting in heavy rain. And in Japan recently, i EVF died after rain, But then I used a hairdryer to dry it out, and it worked again. So in conclusion, I never had issues with water or snow that made real damage. Leica will never issue any guarantee or promise, because they can't. But in actuality nothing really ever happens.
@@MagicOfLight_ThorstenOvergaard I thank you very much.
Good advice, but safety first. Someone might be interested in what you are wearing.
I didn't experience anything in London that made me feel unsafe.
Be careful not to get robbed in London.
As opposed to Birmingham or Manchester? London is probably the safest major city in England.
Buy a lens from Russia - really?
Helios 58mm made in Russia (1959-1999). To make it political correct, you can buy it from Ukraine (as an irony of life, they sell them on eBay).
Why not 🤡 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Yes, really. I have three different versions of the Helios and each has its own virtues They are not perfect, and that is the whole point. Perfect is a vastly overrated feature. Each one grips you in a slightly different way.
I love your channel but you really need to say the word photography correctly - it's pronounced photog-raphy. It's not pronounced photo-graphy. :)
Says who?
@@peetje28021970 says the entire English speaking population.
I think his pronunciation is charming and it reminds me that while he speaks more than one language I do not.
@@billsweat2231 I speak two. At one time I spoke four.
It's his thing...👍🏻
