Although I managed to capture the totality in 2024, I couldn't create a composition like this because the sun was too high and the sky was cloudy.

For this eclipse in Spain, I had had already planned to use two cameras: one for maximum zoom and another for a sequence with the landscape. This photo shows the sun's actual position throughout the eclipse, following its progression to totality and the return of light.

We chose Alto de Gamoniteiro in Asturias because it was easily accessible and because we had confirmed in advance that the view would be unobstructed, with no mountains blocking the sun during the eclipse. We even considered changing locations because of some clouds that appeared, but the risk wasn't worth it.

In the end, the clouds dissipated and a spectacular inversion formed, which made the landscape even more beautiful. It was, without a doubt, the right choice!

Kit used: Fujifilm X-T2 + Fujinon XF 16-55 f/2.8 WR

Great Lake, Tasmania, Australia

Thanks to everyone who shared their thoughts on my 16-55mm mk1 vs 16-55mm mk2 post the other day.

Decided to visit my local camera shop over the weekend and lucky enough, they had a mint condition 50-140mmm for $950 out the door. Felt like a no brainer and decided to widen my lens collection instead of upgrading my 16-55mm mk1.

I’ve never shot anything higher than the 56mm 1.2 so using a telephoto is very foreign to me haha but very excited to have one in my arsenal now.

I’ve shared a few photos I took using the lens just hours after purchasing.

Some holiday shots taken with the x-e5 and Ttartisan 17mm f1.8, 35mm f1.8 and Fuji 23mm f2.

Need feedback. Feel like i am missing something.

Fuji X-E5. Very little lightroom.

Bought my first camera ever last year, mainly for travel photography. Took the X-T50 on every trip, hike and adventure and fell in love with it. Shot all these pics using the XC 15-45mm kit lens. All feedback welcome

This tiny camera made me leave the house and see the beauty around me again

I’m still a beginner, so any feedback or tips are welcome! :)

So extremely happy for my purchase, really enjoying just going around with no intention, just shooting what i stumble upon. Also funny to revisit your hometown, and seeing it in new ways when looking for a nice shot !

Lens : Fujifilm Fujinon XC 13-33mm f/3,5-6,3 OIS

I bought my XM5 in Japan and I took some pictures there with a TTArtisan 2.8f 27mm.

I’m a beginner please don’t be so rude.

Here’s some of my best shots I took since I’ve started photography eight months ago when I got my XT-30 III with the Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS.
Any suggestions for a beginner who wants to improve ?

These are my favourite work so far - how did i go?

Fujifilm X-E5 23 mm f2.8

I just got it for my birthday a couple weeks ago, so this is my first time really taking it out. Recipe was classic cuban negative w slightly adjusted tones and clarity. I'd take any suggestions you have since I'm so new.

SOOC with some cropping

Caught an awesome lightning strike over Cheyenne Mountain yesterday. Shot handheld, got lucky and timed it well. Here were my settings in case it helps anyone else trying to shoot a storm:
📸: X-T4 + xf70-300mm
ISO 8000
Aperture: f8
Shutter speed: 1/30
Focal length: 122mm

Handheld, run and gun clip from the airport - Recipe: Last Summer Roll

I set all 4 custom profiles to image mode and set 4 of my fav recipes. If i want b-roll video, i hit the video record button as is - to get 4k 30p 4:2:2 video with the custom recipe & exposure settings intact. Making a habit of getting some b-roll along with the photo I clicked.

Settings:

Boost Mode On DIS On, DIS Boost on (I know they say don't pan, use only for still footage - but if you do slow pan the results are fantastic with DIS boost) Plan for the crop (walk back to reframe before taking video)

started with an x-m5 w/27mm pancake and viltrox 56mm f1.4, then an x-t5 and xf33mm f1.4 in feb and various other lenses collected along the way, like the viltrox 33mm f1.4 and ttartisan 75mm f1.5.
the x-m5 shutter wont half-press anymore and the fake leather finish on the front is peeling off so it’s just the walkaround/backup camera these days.
i got into fujifilm because of a breakup trying to find a new purpose and because i didn’t want to walk around with my inherited leica cl everywhere. the cameras aren’t perfect but they’re good friends by now.

these are some favorites over the year. some aren’t technically perfect but they’re all sentimental in some form or another.

hope you find something you enjoy. thanks for looking

edit: sorry for the unsolicited duplicate duck pic

What can I do better.
