Recognised by the LFI magazine

The LFI Gallery, part of Leica Fotografie International (LFI), is a curated platform showcasing photography from around the world. Submitted photographs are reviewed by LFI’s professional picture editors, who select outstanding images for recognition within the gallery. Photographs taken with Leica cameras may be distinguished as Leica Master Shots, while selected images are featured in LFI’s curated Selections across different photographic genres.
A number of Hajo Pirenz’s photographs have been recognised as Leica Mastershots and featured in these genre-based Selections. Further recognised work can be viewed in his LFI Gallery.
