I'm seriously thinking of using also the Leica M240 for the shooting with Cristiana (scheduled for the 1st of March, just 4 days before last year's date).
I was looking some old photos in the past days, from the time I was using the Leica rangefinder extensively, and I miss that approach.
Of late my work has become much more technical, I would even argue better, but not necessarily more impactful, just look at these two pictures of Sadie, simple yet effective!
It is time to go back to basics, at least for some of the pictures...

The camera that never managed to conquer my heart is the Fujifilm X100V, it does take some beautiful BW pictures in pretty ordinary conditions (https://www.instagram.com/bramleyapple_square/ is mainly made with this camera), but I don't find the way to make it work seamlessly in my nude workflow.
I guess not every cameras clicks, if you know what I mean.

A part from the subject (very beautiful as well as fleeing), I like how the background is a bit out of focus while the foreground is well defined. Since I am ignorant about photography in spite of your lessons, I cannot say if it is related to Leica M240 or the lens.

Any 50mm lens with at wider apertures (I guess this was 2.8) will do the same, but a good quality lens is doing it in a more pleasant and unique way. Particularly if you are getting nearer to the subject like in the second picture, Sadie shape stands out and is more 3D this way. Glad you notice these details 😊
