The Soul of Photography

Philipp Weinmann went out and about with the new Leica Q2 Monochrom

"This may sound paradoxical, but I experience the reduction to black and white as very enriching."

2 Emotions - P.Weinmann

""Photography enables
us to engage in a
deeper exploration of our
own selves, and tune into
our internal reality.

That’s why I initially focus on my own response to the images I create – and then I’m very pleased if they also elicit emotions from other people."

"But what is it that I find so fascinating about black and white photography?

Why does this photographic style have such a calming effect on me? For me, this process has been like a journey to myself."

"Photographing with the Q2 Monochrom felt effortless and free.

The camera system’s minimalism allowed me to fully concentrate on my composition and the nature of the light."

"I was very impressed by the camera’s low noise level. Especially the sustained richness of details at higher ISO settings is truly remarkable."
