    Refreshing. The nostalgia of paper goods never fades. Cheers!

    I was often reluctant to your videos but with the last videos I found how similar we think and how inspiring your videos are. Thank you very much!

    Great thought on past cards and of course cheap way to own a piece of Throsten - work of art

    Thank you for this wonderful idea. Nothing compares to a postcard, but personally made ones, they’re especially heartened personal notes.

    You sir are one of the most interesting person on RUclips. And that's coming from someone who has a terrible handwriting and doesn't even own a Leica camera. Thank you for your entertaining videos!

    This is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing this. That elephant shot is stunning! Also the lighthouse. I recently decided to make some greeting cards with photographs from Scotland and Romania and other places I've been to. I stumbled upon this video while researching this subject. Again, so beautiful! Thank you. Take care. 🤗💛🤗
    Ps: I love the idea of using these as bookmarks as well. That was one of my reasons of wanting to design some. Another was to promote my upcoming book. I'm so excited to see how people react to them.
    That yellow notebook at 1:02 is lovely. Can you please share the link from where we could purchase it?

    I have a postcard from a former boss that I have held on to for over 20 years. 'Hand written' has always had meaning, and even more so today.

      Lots of offset printers and digital printers who offer to print postcards. These are 300g paper.

    Canon used to make a small dye sub postcard printer. I think it was called Selphy 100. Battery or AC, small enough to travel.

    Thorsten - you have a vision of photography which embraces people and their environment and the beauty of things. It seems natural that this vision should include Leica cameras and the beauty of their functionality which is so well crafted to the task of capturing your vision. I have watched your videos on and off for several years now and find it all very convincing and seductive.
    I am not a Leica owner but am not sure I can resist it much longer .....

    Haha. You made me laugh with the ‘one more thing.’ For those who don’t know Mr Thor yet, behind the model looks, the expensive bags, the multi-million-dollar Leica collection, is a sincere kind person with whom one can just have a cup of coffee like with an old friend. ;-))

      P.s. the title shot of the video looks like you are Steve Jobs introducing the white iPad - and the window on that postcard is where an Apple logo would be. The hidden wink to SJ, Thorsten brings the postcard to the people :-)

    Thorsten, I love this video. Hopefully one day, the crazy governments around the world will let us travel again, so I can send some of your post cards to my family and friends. Keep up the good work and always wear a camera.

    Kære Thorsten, så du printer dine egne postkort. Fremragende!
    Men sikkert bliver dine bøger trykt af kommercielle trykkerier. Bruger du lokal trykkeriindustri eller sender du ud, til trykkerier i fx Singapore.
    Thank you for this presentation. 👌

    Hei Thorsten. Eg er glad du tok opp dette tema, for det er ikkje mye som slår en personlig hilsen i form av et godt gammelt postkort. Eg har brukt TouchNote når eg reiser, men etter å ha sett dette trur eg at eg skal lage de sjøl. Tusen takk. Følger deg alltid! Hilsen Arvid på LEICAANDI.COM

    I really like this idea. Small postcards are almost a waste - why not just send a big one? There is much more impact that way, and there is more room to write a longer message.
    As for selling photos, I think that these days, there is no point selling photos. Here, you are not selling photos, you are selling postcards. Usually, you are selling books. I would not buy your photos (or anyone's photos), but I would buy products with your photos on them or in them.
    Photos are a dime a dozen. I have a few photos on Unsplash, and I will eventually put more there. Already, L'Oreal, via McCann Paris, has used one of my photos from Unsplash. I hope that this continues!
    Of course with some photos I can't do that, because they are taken for clients. But when a client hires you, they aren't buying photos, they are buying photography. A critical difference, I think.
    I do think that there can be a model to sell very high quality stock photos, though. Imagine a stock agency that holds only photos made with medium format cameras. That business model could work.
