About Artist

David Dranoff

The camera is a tool used for indulging my own sense of curiosity. I walk around the world looking for the fleetings moments, intentional decisions, and magical coincidences surrounding me. Without much truly planned, I cannot say that there is a cohesive narrative--besides simply finding the beauty in what is in front of my lens at that very moment. All of my photos were shot on 35mm film with a Leica M5, paired with a Leica 35mm Summicron ASPH lens.
