I took these photos with my Voigtlander Bessa R with canon 50mm f1.4 LTM and Ricoh A12 50mm lensor.
Both of them performed very well.

You probably don't want to hear this but truth is truth.
The Digital images completely outshine the film stuff. There is much more life in them.

What are those rainbow circular things in the color photo?
 
Thanks Spode,
It is a picnik area in Ankara.
Those folk dancers are called "Seğmen"
Streetshooter,
Those circular things are bubbles blowed by a small child just standing in front of me.
 
A very enjoyable set cerbay, giving an insight into a unique culture. Wonderful stuff. ;)
Also, I have to agree with Don, the digital images definitely have more life, as well as dimension/depth.
 
Thanks for nice comments MarcusEyre1,
I am considerably inexperienced at taking photos with an analog fully manual rangefinder camera. (Bessa R does not have Aperture priority mode)
I don't feel comfortable with Bessa R yet. (On the contrary with GXR)
I intentionally avoided taking close range photos not to miss the right moment, the focus and accurate metering.
Those must be the reason of flat look of analog photos.
