During my stay in Rome, I developed the Jupiter Preset Pack to tackle the intense midday light and deep shadows found in Italy and Greece. This video is a street photography journey through Rome where I put the Leica M10-R and the new 50mm Summilux to the test, proving that you don’t need golden hour to create stunning images.
