"Why I still use Soviet lenses on my Leica cameras — imperfections, stories, and a different kind of beauty." #Photography #Leica #VintageLenses #Helios44 #JupiterLens #OldGlass #ManualFocus #StreetPhotography #Storytelling #PhotoTips

Not every lens is about perfection.

Some are about soul, flaws, and a certain kind of magic that modern glass just doesn’t give you.

This was shot with one of my favourite vintage Russian lenses — a Helios 44 — mounted on my Leica. Softness, swirls, character... exactly what I love for personal work and storytelling photography.

I just published a new blog post about why I use old Soviet lenses on my Leica M10, M6 and M3 — and why these imperfect tools still matter today.
