Glow is just highlight flare. You like it or you don`t and it works for some pics, not for others.
Greyhounds are great dogs. There is a track closing in wisconsin so there are some available for adoption. I hope they all find a good home.

You'd better hurry up though because I guess they'll be going quick

Color glow ....
.... with a Nikkor 50/1.4 LTM.
Personally I think of glow as veiling flare.

The best camera is one that still works!
Dear Dave,
Indeed. One of the points we made, as far as I recall, was that the 'glow' was at least partly down to overexposure with guessed exposures. Also, cynically, to the fact that people who could afford them often bought Leica lenses once they had become good enough photographers to persuade themselves that they were worth the money. The 'glow' was the photographer, not the lens.
And there's less absolute rubbish around from Leica than from some of their erstwhile competitors.
Cheers,
R.
I agree with Roger here ... sometimes a hint of over exposure in certain light conditions and as Roland says ... veiling flare.

Beautiful colors. I'd prefer the composition down a little.

Here's some 'glow' from a 73/1.9 Hektor, prior to having it cleaned.
