Going Back to Basics




I will take my Mamiya 6 camera (recently repaired) with me this trip and leave the Leica 6 at home. The choice came down to the camera that I have made successful photo with before and one that I am struggling with a bit. The Mamiya 6 with flash/Tri-x is a system I shot extensively in 1999 and 2003. I feel comfortable with this camera nd it led to some of my favorite images. Why fool around with a new camera when I have something that works already, I should use this familiar tool to make new images and tell new stories.
