Bean Boots vs Maine Hunting Shoe

With ample snow on the ground today there couldn’t be a better time to share both varieties of my LL Bean boots. The Maine Hunting Shoes were handed down to me by my father, not quite sure how old they are. The smaller eight inch boots are relatively new to addition to my closet, the leather isn’t quite as nice but they’re much easier to wear with a more modest sole.

Garry’s M4

I stumbled onto these pictures of Garry Winogrand’s Leica through a camera dealer’s website- talk about patina. Upon close inspection you can see exactly where his palm and fingers came in contact with the body throughout his life as a photographer. Even more impressive is the impression of film sprockets on the pressure plate- in layman’s terms: he shot a lot of film.
