The most iconic jazz photographer of all time, Herman Leonard passed away on 8/14/10. His body of work is absolutely mind blowing. He was the one photographer who had the most profound effect on me and inspired me to pick up a camera. I had a chance to meet him a number of years ago and he was truly one of the sweetest, most humble guys...R.I.P
I've got a lot of editing to do in the next few weeks, been a busy summer.
Below are some images I shot with my EOS I, an 85mm and a few rolls of illford film. I still love to shoot with it...I have to re-think everything when using it, lots of fun.
