QuoteThis is one of my favourite shots because of it’s intensity, calm hectic and orchestrated chaos that resembles the elegance of a ballet performance.

Taken with M8 and 21mm f/2.8 Elmarit

Why I use a Leica:
Because of their amazing M lenses. Period.

Harald Benz lives in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. You can visit his website squarehead.ca or take a look at his photo books for more interesting Leica captures.

    I don’t see chaos in this photo at all. Nor do I see choreography. Intensity either.
    I see an images that is very sharp with nice colors shot from the point of view of an outsider. Very removed from the subjects. Hardly any Movement. doesn’t show intense working concentrated expressions. It possesses a nice overall quality of image, but certainly does not have any of the feeling of a busy kitchen. I’d go back and try again. Get in the middle of it! (imho)

    Pseuds corner for the photo caption. Bin for photo. Sorry but this is the kind of nonsense and pretentiousness that doesn’t do Leica users any service at all.

      I disagree. I enjoy the sharpness and the colurs of this photo. I think it portrays a restaurant kitchen very nicely.

      Could you please repeat your comment in a way that I can understand it.
      “Pseuds corner for the photo caption. Bin for photo.” What are you talking about???????

      Probably because your entire post makes no sense to me at all, I don’t get what kind of “nonsense” and “pretentiousness that doesn’t do Leica users any service” you the heck are talking about.

      Plain English please.
      Thank you.

        “Entire post”, Harald it is three sentences. So no point expanding any further, it will only cause more confusion.

      • Harald Benz says:

        Here’s the thing, I don’t care if your “entire post” is 3 sentences long or a 300 page novel. Since it is a comment to one of my photos, I would like at least the courtesy that it’s written in a non cryptic way.

    Well, let’s forget “Pseuds corner” and “Bin for photo”.
    But if the sentence “Sorry but this is the kind of nonsense and pretentiousness that doesn’t do Leica users any service at all.” is directed at my photo (and not at the first comment) than I would like to know who the f**k do you think you are and who gave you the authority to decide what “doesn’t do Leica users any service at all” or what does???
    Since you don’t even see a point in “further expanding” I can only assume I understood your comment correctly. Which makes you the pretentious one.
