Subject: [Leica] Question on lens switching

I noticed on some negs I shot this morning that every frame where I swapped
lenses is fogged.

 

Does this mean my shutter isn't lightproof or that you just shouldn't change
lenses with film in it?  Or should I maybe shade it significantly before
switching?  I did this on both my Hexar and my M6 and the M6 is the only one
showing fogging when the lens was off.
