DSCF0722.JPG6 viewsBack to the 35 mm prime. This time I removed the polarizing filter, which will capture any glistening on the water surface, and allow me to shoot at a lower ISO, with less noise. I didn't anticipate the bright moon coming through the tent wall, directly into my eyes as I slept on my back.Sep 11, 2023

DSCF0717.JPG7 viewsThis was shot at the long end of the 50-200 mm lens. The Fuji XT-2 certainly lacks the low light capability of the Canon 5D-- but it is so much lighter!Sep 11, 2023
