Really good! on average I like a painterly photograph more than a documentary one and this does it for me!

Sadly I don’t always practice what I preach.

Thanks @Derbyshire Man.  Was so nice to go wandering for a good chunk of the day just doing photography - haven't had a chance to do that in a while and a new camera just kind of invigorates you and maybe makes you look around differently.  Not the Leica per-se but just having a mindset of 'finding' something for your new camera that's interesting. I got really lucky here, the sun barely came out and it was flat as a pancake all day, but there were a couple of short little hints like here.  

I've seen quite a few of your images here and am impressed - really like your style.  Actually I haven't thought about B&W since I was a kid with an Olympus film camera, but yours and others here and around the web etc have really got me thinking about it again.  I got another pic that was so flat it just felt dull in colour, but better in B&W.  If I manage to get anything better out of it I'll stick it here.

Please do!

I realise that one can create images with any camera but I do find I enter the zen state more quickly and fully with a M (and even more so with more than one M!) than any of my other cameras like my Canon/Fuji gear. As long of course as the subject fits the tool. Football for example would not be zen at all!

As I said elsewhere here a couple of weeks ago I spent an early morning from just after dawn in Chania with an M11D with voigtlander 28mm nokton, M11P with summilux 50mm and M11M with 1976 pre asph 35mm summilux and it was absolute bliss. Then again it damn well should be for the cost! I find changing lenses kills it a bit but x100 with the 35mm equivalent and something different on the Leica is pretty good but very rapidly has me wishing I’d brought two Leica bodies. Where the Fuji beats the Leica is in the rain where one hand can hold the umbrella and the other the camera. It’s not impossible with the Leica by any means and there are no end of seminal shots taken in the snow/rain etc but it is easier!

I used to bring the Fuji thinking I’d use it where autofocus would be an advantage but then discovered that never really materialised!

Anyway, back to your photo, great combination of light and artistic vision.

Afterglow

The panorama was merged from 3 single shots taken from the tripod with the Noctilux 75mm f1.25. It was taken at dusk at Setzberg. On the right side we can see the mountains of Tegernsee, more left behind the chains of Karwendel and Wetterstein with Zugspitze in the center of the picture.

M11M 21 SEM. Unfortunately you can see the Lightroom induced fresnel effect. When I get half a second I'll redo in C1 which doesn't do it (yes, lens correction is turned off!)
