The Fujifilm X-H1 was released in 2018 and it seems like its successor is right around the corner. Almost immediately after a new piece of gear is announced the speculation starts about what they left out and what features they might add in the next iteration. The X-H1 was no different. A wishlist of features... Continue Reading →
https://youtu.be/DbuGwCThrHU This is my last YouTube video of the year. In this video I recap my YouTube progress, my most used cameras of 2020 and more. It's basically just a 12 minute chat about photography and saying thank you to all of you for giving me the encouragement to keep going with this blog and... Continue Reading →
This "CITY TEAL" recipe was a result of just a bit of experimenting. I don't think I would have thought specifically about trying a look like this if I had not stumbled upon it. It's a little bit of a cold look but the green tint helps give blue sky a teal vibe with certain... Continue Reading →

This STONE GARDEN recipe sits somewhere between my C-3400 and METRO ELEMENTS. They were all built with the idea of street photography in mind. This is the latest addition to my color street photography recipes. I appreciate recipes with a vintage look to them, I've created some and I intend to create more but this... Continue Reading →
I want to create as many good B&W film simulation choices as I can for the X-T1. "REFLECTED CONCRETE" is my latest B&W recipe. This sits somewhere between my "STREET SPIRIT" and "TONED CARBON". I know it becomes difficult to tell these B&W recipes apart at first but once you shoot with them often enough... Continue Reading →
When I started creating "METRO ELEMENTS" I had 2 goals in mind, adding to my grainy recipes to have another organic film like option and to have solid everyday walk around type recipe for my X-H1. Just like with "REFRACTED ROSE" and "C-3400" I used the combination of -4 sharpness and a strong grain setting.... Continue Reading →
If you've browsed through the rest of my film simulation recipes you may have seen "COBALT" which I created on my X-T1. I liked the look I was getting out of "COBALT" and a lot of the reason for the look was the white balance setting. I decided to try to create something on my... Continue Reading →
When I first created this "REFRACTED ROSE" recipe and shot with it I didn't know how I felt about it. It originally didn't come out how I expected and wanted. Almost 6 weeks later I gave it a second look and now have a new appreciation for it. Maybe it's because it's different from any... Continue Reading →
My first 2 black and white film simulation recipes were high contrast looks. Sometimes you need a slightly lower contrast film sim recipe to help soften shadows a bit. My next couple of recipes were built based on this need, including this one "STREET SPIRIT". I built "STREET SPIRIT" on my X-T1 but just like... Continue Reading →
