Festive Season

Blowing a Christmas Kiss

We have made it to the festive season . It is supposed to be the “silent season,” a time of quiet reflection and anticipation preceding Christmas. But we all know that Advent is rather the most busiest time of the year. For sure also for The Significant Other and myself. But to get in the mood, at least photographically, I grabbed the Leica and headed into town for some monochrome street photography on Nuremberg’s famous Christkindlesmarket on the historic main square in the Old Town.

Street photography for me is all about capturing gesture, the faces and stories of the streets. Getting five “keepers” out of an hour of shooting (well, interrupted by drinking mulled wine and eating Bratwurst, a must during festive season) is not a bad result.

Images captured with the Leica SL2-S and the Leica Vario Elmarit F/2.8 24-70 ASPH. Postprocessing with Adobe Lightroom Classic.
