October 5, 2022 – Work in progress.
I’m experimenting with some new recipes for my Fujifilm cameras. These shots are from my X-T4 using a recipe based off the Classic Negative film simulation as the base. This is one of those looks that has hints of a film look but sill has the overall clarity of digital. I shot these test photos…

October 4, 2022 – Blending In.
Every time I go out to shoot street photography I try to improve. Sometimes I’m conciously working on improving compositions, exposure or the art of blending in to the scene.
