Arriving in Sydney.

Knox Bertie explores new techniques working with both traditional analogue methods and digital black and white photography using the Leica Q2 Monochrom.

Knox‘s photography is focused on people, their relationship with urban spaces, the changes to Sydney and its impact on people as the city grows. Moving beyond traditional street photography, Knox’s work sits somewhere between truth and fiction, showing fragments of time and space, offering an emotional portrayal of life in Sydney.

The ability of this camera to shoot at high ISO is very unique.

There are situations - specifically a night - where I would never get a shot. If I was shooting film, there just wouldn't be enough light. But the sensitivity of this Cameras is very impressive.

My style of photography, I think, has changed. It's changed because of the abilities of the camera. And ultimately, I think that will continue to progress. I'm still feeling out what my style looks like with the Q2 Monochrom. But that's probably what I've enjoyed the most.
