  1. Very nice feel. I don't know if the image was heavily post processed or if it's due to the vintage Sonnar, but this image certainly has a very nice classic feel to it.
  2. Youth, happiness, playfulness, and smiles. Don't ever grow up, Mirza. It's a trap. (MP, 35 mm 'cron, Acros 100)
  3. Minneapolis, June 2020 (MP, 35 mm 'cron, Acros 100)
  4. The mural dedicated George Floyd (early June 2020). Sadly, it has already been desecrated several times by the white supremacists (MP, 35 mm 'cron, Acros 100).
  5. Another one in George Floyd series (MP, 35 mm 'cron, Acros 100).
  6. The intersection of Chicago Ave. and 38th St. has been blocked-off for motor traffic since later spring of 2020. It's become a pedestrian only zone, frequented by hundreds, if not thousands of people who on daily basis come to pay their respects to George Floyd. As of now, the city of Minneapolis does not have a reopening plan, and this intersection remains blocked; it's become a kind of a shrine. The local residents and activists in the area have set up road blocks and the police are not allowed in this area any more.
  7. Intersection of Chicago Ave and 38th St. in Minneapolis, MN where George Floyd was killed has been frequented by thousands of people who came to pay their respects.
  8. Let's start the 39th week of 2020. Here is another one of the photos I took in the past few months following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, MN (USA). [Leica MP, 35 mm Summicron, Fujifilm Acros]
  9. The congressional delegation (led by the US Congress-woman Ilhan Omar) paying their respect at the site of killing of George Floyd (Minneapolis, MN, USA, early June 2020). A lot of bad things have happened since then in the Twin Cities, and there hasn't been much improvement. On the contrary, things only got worse. [Leica MP, 35 mm Summicron, Fujifilm Acros 100]
  10. Newly learned skill: bicycle riding. Mirza is all smiles :) [MP, 35 mm 'cron, Acros 100]
  11. Chicago Ave. S. & E. 38th St., Minneapolis, MN ( the infamous site of killing of George Floyd). Leica MP, 35 mm Summicron, Fujifilm PRO400H
  12. I've played with Leica lenses on one of my Fuji X series. I think the major drawback is the crop factor that takes out quite a bit out of those lenses. In addition to that, I found out that with X-series, XF lenses work the best and I thought Leica to be a bit of a pain to use. But with Sony, it's a different story. It's a full frame and you can really exploit those lenses to their full extent.
  13. A set of pics from a very nice car exhibit from a few years ago 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR by Srebreni Halid, on Flickr The Allure of the Automobile, Portlnad Art Museum
  14. Chicago and 38th, Minneapolis, MN (Leica MP, 35 mm Summicron, PRO400H).

  17. Location of George Floyd's murder, Minneapolis, MN (MP, 35 mm Summicron, Fujifilm PRO 400H). Mural dedicated to Mr. Floyd, Minneapolis, MN (Leics MP, 35 mm Summifron, Fujifilm PRO 400H).
