Doesn't really need saying, but the portrait is lovely; beautiful subject.

I really like the picture of the arms. Very unusual, well done!
 
I just got an X100 a few days ago, and have been using it in a long-term project - pictures through the dirty windows of a train I take every day. The main thing I was concerned about was how it would do in manual, since there's no way it could attain exposure/focus/composition within the second or less that the scenes I'm after flash past the window.

Still learning, but so far it's doing great. Take a reading, set the aperture and shutter, focus near infinity, use the OVF so there's no (or hardly any) lag. I'm getting more keepers with the X100 than other cameras I'm using for this.
 
Great project idea

The vivid post-processing is me, not the Fuji - still working out the look I want for the final collection.

I agree with you about setting up the camera to be in fully manual mode. I find the same is true with the XPro1. Once I set it up to be fully manual, it feels just like my film rangefinders did. Happiness!! :)
 
Jamie, Gary - thanks. It's actually the ACE train, from Stockton to San Jose. Same tracks as CalTrain. Interesting countryside - they're draining the salt ponds Morton uses to make salt, so there are many surreal colors from the varying levels of sodium. The tumbledown cabins are part of a town that existed 100 years ago in the marsh. Lots of bars and brothels.

I'll probably put up a thread fairly soon; it's quite the logistical project . . .

I forgot the ace went thru that same section... The old tumbled down cabins look much worst than when I riding Amtrak down to Santa Clara.

Hmmmm... perhaps I should try signing up with him, then!

Here, we're getting to the point of considering almost anything, just to get away from a (so-called) summer which comprises relentless grey skies and rain; no sign of any decent light for my taste in photography...:mad:
