Consumed with the News

Had some time today to head over to SFMOMA to see the Henry Wessel exhibit. I really enjoyed the exhibit because his photography is very similar to the style that I photograph on a daily basis – that of being a documentary photographer and drawing “inspiration from the everyday”. I’m not even close to his expertise but who knows. Another common characteristic is that he’s a fellow Bay Area resident and Leica user.

This photo was snapped on 3rd Street in SF using my Minolta 7sii that I recently cleaned and replaced the seals on. I’ll be selling this baby soon as I have too many 7sii’s so if you’re interested and want to jump on it before it goes on ebay or RFF let me know. I can easily send you some photos of it if you wish and it’s a silver body one. I’ll even give you a good Alapan discount.

  3. Hi Peter,

    Unfortunately I do not have any for sale. I only have 1 left and it’s a keeper.
