Thanks so much Grace, really appreciate that. Loved my recent trip to Atlanta. And let me know what you think about Best Friend; it's a fun place and food's fantastic.
Yeah, I really enjoyed it. I hope you're enjoying the Q3. I've been selling a bunch of stuff and saving for the M11-P... I'm about a grand out, at the moment (which, is insane to say that that's not a lot, comparatively), so sometime early next year! Can't wait. By the way... congratulations on the new gig! I haven't had the chance to say.
Thanks mate. And wow, an M11. I saw someone on the streets of Downtown LA with an M11 the other day and we had a chat. What a gorgeous, perfect camera. Good luck my friend. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
It's beautiful. I'm taking the piss a little, to be honest, in buying it - especially given my uncertain work situation but... I'm selling off the last of my music gear so it's not so bad. I figured if I'm going to buy one to keep me the next many years, it may as well be that one. The 11-P, is the choice, I think, as the unbranded front just looks so classy. Similar to the M3. We'll see how it goes though... still some money to bring in.
Oh, I love that wee red dot just as much as the next man. :) I recently bought an airtag and stuck it in my wee camera bag. It's not a foolproof system, but there's a little peace of mind in there.
Truly my favorite newsletter on here. If you were to upgrade this to paid, I would absolutely support.
To answer your story about the Leica: isn’t it beautiful how unexpected life can sometimes be? The serendipity of such moment. The joy of being proved wrong by universal dynamics? So amazing.
Wow, thanks so much for this Naomi. Keeping it free for now, although I hugely appreciate the super kind sentiment! And couldn't agree more about the Leica journey. I also think I'm now spiritually bonded with this camera...
Loved every bit of this even though it's months old. Gotta plan part two of this kind of thing soon! Great format too.
Thanks man, really appreciate this.
This was a wonderful read as we get ready to wrap the year! Onwards, my friend!
Thanks man. Always appreciate that coming from you. Have a fantastic holidays with the family!
Congrats on the new role! Hope this means you'll be coming through ATL more often — would love your take on my hometown!
Also thanks for the Roy Choi reco! Will be heading to Vegas in January to see Adele and I can't wait to go!

Another banger of a read 👏🏻
Awesome, thanks so much.
One of these every now and then would be brilliant, Dan!
Thanks mate – I think I might add this as a regular edition, to be honest. I appreciate it!

Yeah fair enough. As a first-time Leica buyer I find the red dot charming, but when it gets stolen because of it, I might change my tune :)
Oh, I love that wee red dot just as much as the next man. :) I recently bought an airtag and stuck it in my wee camera bag. It's not a foolproof system, but there's a little peace of mind in there.
there's emotion, and meaning in this issue. i love the format. thanks 🙏 and enjoy what's coming.
Thanks so much Kev – I really appreciate the kind words.
Wonderful and inspiring read - thanks Daniel. Enjoy the new role!
Cheers Emma, that means a lot!
Enjoy your Q. I’ve had the first version for a few years and it’s still the best camera I’ve ever used. Congratulations on your new role too.
Thanks Andrew. The Q is a beast. Appreciate the kind words about the new role, too. And I'm loving your newsletter.
Thank you. Coincidentally Ian Sanders forwarded your newsletter to me this morning thinking that I would like it.
Ah, Ian's a great guy. Loved your writeup on Trent Parke's new tome. Gorgeous work.
Thank you. That means a lot coming from you.
