What a treat to see this!! Jesse Alexander was my father. I have two of his Leica cameras, with which he made the images like the one of Jim Clark.

Wow, Heidi, I did not know that! Such a honour to feature your father's excellent work. And it's so nice to have you in our community.

I was able to share my own "The Stockport Collection" book with him, which I made with the Leica M4 he had given me in 1973, just a few months before he died. He had a happy life pursuing his twin joys of photography and cars, and made some lifelong buddies in the 1950's and 1960's racing fraternity.

Excellent work, I've enjoyed his work for years, I particularly like that most of his rendering were in B&W. Thank you for featuring him.
