About Artist

David Payne

Dedicated to the world of Black and White Photography using the Leica Q2 Monochrom as my tool of choice. An enthusiast Photographer retired from the corporate world and on a Photography Journey to discover what artistic streams lie hidden within my depths. I'm disabled, using a walker to get out and around for my Photography Walks...but that doesn't stop me from getting out to chase Light, Shadows, Shapes & Textures wherever I can find them 📷🖤😎‼️
