Today we have a dreamy image submitted by Emily Godwin. She shot this with her M9 and 50 Summitar! Lovely! Thanks Emily!
“Fairie Escape”
When I switched from a D200 to a Leica M9 (your blog helped convince me), I read somewhere that shooting with a Leica wouldn’t make you a better photographer. I somewhat disagree – while it may not improve my technical skills (exposure, composition, etc.), the “Leica frame of mind” has helped me to become better. This image was shot for a series I’m doing based a dream sequence journey titled Invitation to an Outdoor Dinner Party.
I have a blog at www.ameliephotographie.com/blog and an online portfolio at ameliephotographie.zenfolio.com
Shot with a Leica M9, 50 Summitar, f12, 1/8 sec. PP with Aperture 3 and Nik plugins.

I like this image, Emily. It is more like I´m looking at a feeling than a picture.
Thank you, Per!
Per, you said what I thought! The feeling jumps of the screen with this picture.
Steve, just wanted to say that I’ve now tested positively for stevehuffphoto.com addiction. Is there a support group that can help me? Whenever the info stream on your site slows down, I feel in need for a fix. Just can’t help it. Don’t feel pressured, though, keep doing things at your own pace. I will just need to deal with my problem myself…
I usually don’t like blur pictures, but this one is different and interesting.
@Rick – thanks for the comment! This site is addictive, and it only gets worse!
@Pascal – Thanks! I’m usually not a fan of blur either, but I did make an exception on this one.
