Big sky over Alfama, Lisbon
Fujifilm XT-1, 23mm f2 @f14, in camera mono with R filter EDIT and Flickr over sharpening!
That’s a very nice Fujigraph, really like the mono presentation.
George.
I still use an XPRO-1 and and XT-1 and find them to be better cameras than I am a photographer!
Another from my walk in the woods ... Dusted off the 80mm for this one

A lovely 'close up' composition

“Excellent” Fujigraph, well composed with fine detail & colour.
George.
A few quick grabs from today, she refuses to co-operate though!

Thanks. I’ll try that next time, as she was t keen on keeping still I should have gone up higher on SS for sure. I’ll take a look at the spot metering option as I’ve not used that in these type of shots before.Nice shots Rick, but if it was me then I`d up the shutter speed more and don`t worry about using a high iso as the X-T3 loves it. Try spot metering too.

Thanks for the comments.
I’ll try and give it a go tomorrow. I might dig a flash out too to give it a go. Just happened to be playing with some settings this morning when she started messing so grabbed the above.At least 250 min for SS and you should be fine, like I said too don`t worry if iso hits over 6400.
Here are a few more I snapped tonight, I took these at 1/250 and with some flash added just for an experiment. I am working on getting her to pose for me properly so I can actually compose the shots better! The lens is super sharp, the uploads don't show this anywhere near as well as the actual files.

Thanks Dave. When I can take my 3 year old I’ll do that.These are a lot better Rick, just need to try and keep the BG clear still great though.
As much as I live the 23 1.4 I'm considering changing it for the F2 version.
I've got both and a couple of X100 series cameras, 35mmFF is my favourite field of view.
F1.4 v F2
The F1.4 is sharper, has better IQ, but is heavier, slower to AF and is not WR, the F2 has faster AF, WR but isn't as sharp, especially at F2
My wife uses the F2 on her X-T20, but I tend to use the F1.4
Thanks David, that’s what I’ve been reading. I’m working with 2 bodies now xt2 and xt20 and getting into portrait shoots. Xt2 has the 56 and xt20 will have the 23. I wanted something smaller for a grab and go anywhere and may just pick up the 23 f2 or even an older x100.
Not the brightest of periods is it? Feels like The Sun's gone on a Festive Season break. Still trying to get pictures of a small thing that won't come close and likes hiding in dark bushes in darkness.

Well I've had an interesting weekend in Bristol, though sadly I did manage to drop my X-T2 and 10-24, damaging the ISO ring on the body and denting the filter thread on the lens, though thankfully both still seem to be functioning fine (the L Bracket took the brunt of the impact).
This is an example of something a bit different from me...I'm no portrait artist but I did like this one of my girlfriend inside an air raid warden's blast shelter in M Shed, the Bristol museum.

Nice one! There's enough life in the water to make it look real - and chilly!My first Sun rise on the Buachaille pic for 2019.Taken with my Fuji XT3 and 10-24mm

I can see a skull on the rock, and an Otter in the water. A water-otter ie, kettle.Nice wee water fall just outside Glencoe village.
Anyone see a turtle in the rock or have I been hitting the Gin to much.
