A Travel, Photography and Points Blog
I was in the Perth city area on the weekend and had a spare hour before my next commitment. I figured I would take the opportunity to just walk around and shoot some urban landscapes and street photography. I don’t often do street portraits or intentionally include people in my shots. This time I tried to include people where possible to add some movement and story to my photos. I tried to keep this session simple. All JPEGs in Classic Chrome film simulation. I did import it into Lightroom and did some light retouching.
Our awesome Fuji X Aus PERTH reps, Gus and Chong, pulled together a meet up for October (when they are already busily organise an over night trip down to Margaret River for November!) last Tuesday night with a pretty great turn out! Despite somewhat of a cold spring night in Perth, we had around 10 people rock up (might be the largest Perth meet up so far… yay Perth). The theme of the meet up was long exposure photography and Kings Park were we tried out hand at capturing light trail from the cars on the freeway.
It was a great excuse for me to take out my tripod and pull out my favourite low light lens. The Fujifilm X-T10 and my trusty 35mm f1.4 did a pretty decent job of capturing the night lights, if I may say so myself. Gus also had a surprise for us that night…. the brand new Fujifil X-T3! It was great fun getting to play around with it wit the 35mm f2 on the camera.Guess which of the 5 images on this shot was taken with the X-T3 🙂 Answer will be revealed at the end. Even though I was testing out the camera in almost pitch black, it was familiar enough for me to get it up and running. I really enjoyed using the X-T2 so I didn’t expect the X-T3 to disappoint… and it didn’t. If i was on the market for a new camera that would likely be my pick. But alas, my little X-T10 is still doing a fine job for me.
