Cambodia #29 Leica Look


I entered into a discussion with a photographer friend of mine today and he asked what 'Leica Look' is about. I replied, "To be honest, i also don't know what leica look exactly is. I just love the 3D rendering of my photos from the 35 Summilux, but I equally love the photos from a voigtlander 50 1.5 and from a simple and dirtcheap 50 1.8 lens from any manufacturer .............. and I don't think a voigtlander should have the Leica look at all (if it's costing 1/10 of the price hahah)..."

I am not sure this shot taken in Cambodia has the Leica look, but I think it has the film look. The vignetting was also self-generated I think by this lens... the grain/noise is quite ugly as it was quite underexposed but for some reason, I like it. So, is this the "Leica Look"?
