I took this picture in Phnom Penh, Cambodia at around 2PM in the afternoon. The weather was humid and hot as it is in a Central Market under a zinc roof. I think about 60% of the people there were mothers with kids. They were having a siesta near a fan.

The picture was taken with M7, Voigtlander color skopar pancake 35/2.5

Why I use a Leica:
I started to use leica with leica IIIF for started, it was given by my wife’s grandpa, the camera itself in a very bad condition, the curtain is broken, but still can give nice picture with it. Not until two months ago I finally buy a secondhand M7 in Jakarta, and since then I never used another camera. I like Leica because of the “feel” when using it. So different than other brands, and the result of the lenses is just awesome. I only got one Summicron 50/2 Leica lens and the Voigtlander Color Skopar 35/2.5.
