Greetings from Greece!

Hi all. I have been shooting with a Ricoh GR III as my only camera for three years now. I swapped it with the IIIx as soon as the latter was announced. What a powerful camera to have in one's pockets. I started out as a travel photographer but family issues have made travelling nigh impossible and so I have been focussing more and more on Street Photography.
I'm currently doing a project where all my photos have to be taken at 1m focus distance - it's tough!

I'm curious to see shots from your 1m project. Are you choosing to only shoot at a certain Aperture as well? Stopping down to say f8 or f11 should help in getting shots in focus. A.k.a more keepers.

Hi, Strettogcrhis. Nice to meet you. And you too, Genster.

I do usually shoot at f13. It is so bright over here that it's easy to shoot fast shutter speeds and such apertures without extreme impact on ISO.
I am happy to share some of the project's photos, but it would have to be later on. I'm in the process of getting some professional critique on the project, so would rather wait till that is done before I share.

Nice meeting you as well. That’s fair. Well good luck with the project and hopefully we will get to view it soon.
