Wild thing (not really)

Fujifilm X100s, 1/90s @ f/16, iso 200

I'm playing with my Fuji since a week and I took the opportunity to test-drive it during my traveling weekend. This the first picture I'm quite fond of.

When the lake is as big as a sea...

And Oswego, NY again. What a beautiful day it was. With the low-hanging clouds the sunset had to be as amazing.

Waiting for the sunset

This was a wonderful evening in Oswego, NY. Not having my main camera with me it was a challenge to get the near-sunset shots right. I ended up up using +2EV compensation and lots of adjustments in the Lightroom. Even though much information was lost (jpeg), I very much like the final result. Especially the fishing guy's silhouette on the left.

Firemen on-call

Good guys firemen... On a quiet, hot summer night. Sitting there, watching people pass by. Hopefully it will be all they have to do this night.

Once upon a time...

Dat hat!

From the same session as the one in previous post, but more menacing and - apparently - more liked by G+ users.

Self-exploration

The shallowest DOF my gear can produce. My beard is not too thick, so focusing on hair and leaving the face slightly out of focus gives a nice effect.
