The Fabulous Fuji X owners thread

[dave.hallett]

Hi Dave I took your advice on Layers so watched a few on youtube. Not great at all but now thanks to you I can try to get better at it. All I did on this was bring up the church then the pathway, a lot to learn but I look forward to it so thanks again.

Glad it was helpful, and yes there's a lot to explore. I think this shot is looking more focused, but you could also bring out the masonry at the edge of the path, which has nice textures, and the people, who definitely add interest.

So just did my first indoor shoot with the 56 and realised that the length is so much more than I'm used to (ooer) so now I need to decide. 23 f1.4 or f2 or a zoom with a wide end for indoor shots. Any thoughts on which is better? I've owned the 23 1.4 and loved it, bit that's all I've had bar the 56

I got those same shots too.
My massive pano of the waterfront worked well. I nanaged to fet 24 shots all the same distance from the frontages and corrected perspective nicely. Only problem is that the sky was carp so the final image is disappointing.

 

[NickTB]

Great portrait nick
The 56mm is a great bit of glass

Thanks Tam

Here you are @Mr Perceptive
Changed the sky and it still didn't look right so I went all arty with it. Best I could do. More work needed. PP needs to be a bit more carefully done, but I'm off to the hospital now so this will have to do.
Wonder how the guy with his tilt & shift camera went on?

Two "Excellent" Fujigraphs Sir, liking both of these very much with my preference (only just) being for the second shot.

George.

Thanks but the lighting is all wrong and the PP is all over the place. Not one of my better efforts.

Not so much a commute as the location of our doctors! We lived at Barcaldine Castle near Benderloch. If we got stuck on the Oban side of the Connel bridge when it was closed by an accident (frequently!) it was one heck of a diversion up Glencoe and back down.

a long diversion stephen ....but think of those amazing views of glencoe you got to see

Thank you George, apart from taking a photo it is nice to really get in to the editing side now.

1st shot is Sooc as well liked it, the Zip is also Sooc, Prince Regent is a very slight edit.

Very nice set of Fujigraphs Sir, all showing some good colour & detail, particularly liking the "Brighton Zip" shot, and the detail in the "St Pauls Steeple" shot.

George.

Thank you kindly Sir, I sure do appreciate your reply.

I thought you'd know exactly where that was taken.

A friend asked me to take some shots of her for her website. One of these was to represent calm and confident when choosing clothes. (She's a therapist dealing with a lot of body issues) I like this as I think it conveys that, but any feedback would be good. I deliberately blew out the window, trying for an almost ethereal, angelic feeling.

I think you achieved your (and her) aims in this shot.

It looked better on my phone . Full size, I still like it but I can see what's bothering you...

That’s a lovely Fujigraph Sir, really nice pose & expression, well framed, and works well with the high key mono presentation.

That's a super image, Nick. Her pose and expression definitely convey calm and confident, and your processing works well to give a really clean look.
