Behind the Shadow of Wisdom

  I told myself this year would be different.  I would be more proactive with my photography and redesign my own path. Is that even possible? Are we so entrenched on gear to have missed the most important aspect of what photography is all about. I think so. Lots of thinking to do but in the mean time I’ll dedicate this picture  to my newly “inspired eye.”   captured with the Fuji X100 LE

In Stride with the X100

    Everyday I fall more and more in love with my X100 LE. The more I shoot with it and its 35mm focal length, the more I realize its a very special way to view the world.   captured with the Fuji X100 LE | 1/1600, f5.6 ISO 400     Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph – Matt Hardy

Fuji X-Pro 1 a Classic

As Fujifilm announced the lens roadmap for 2014 I couldn’t help but think about their choices in lens. By all standards, all great choices, and much needed focal lengths for any nascent camera system. All good but at the same time I thought to myself – What about the X-Pro 1? What’s to happen to the premiere X-series camera? Will it be reinvented to something new to accomodate these lenses.

Ricoh GR: The Power of RAW

The Ricoh GR files are amazing. Malleable and able to handle some heavy manipulation. Here’s a before and after processed with VSCO 04, the accompanying tool kit, and a few adjustment brushes. For street photography the Ricoh GR alongside VSCO 04 and the toolkit is simply a great combination. Notice the skin tones and how life like they look. This scene was exactly what I envisioned when I clicked the shutter.

Fuji XE1 Street Photography and the XF 18-55mm

Street photography is often times related to having a small pancake attached to your camera in order to be more inconspicuous when your out and about and I tend agree with this feeling but its not necessarily so. Its more about how you feel with your camera, its about the way you photograph and frame your subjects. Follow this advice, and in time as you practice I’m sure your street photography will improve. Photographic opportunities are everywhere you just need an observant eye and coupled with the Fujinon XF 18-55mm many things are possible. The XF18-55mm acts like a Swiss Army knife for me: its versatile, its extremely sharp at all focal lengths, its dead silent, zero zoom creep, and best of all its got incredible image stabilization. If you own a Fujifilm interchangeable X series camera, its a worthy addition to your kit. Later on down the road, I’m looking to add the XF 55-200mm as I’m sure its another jewel.   Image shot with the XE1 & XF 18-55mm and processed in Silver …
