As I prepare to post my review, I thought I would share a couple photos. I love how my original TCL-x100 Teleconverter looks on my new x100F. I had originally purchased it with my black x100S, but I think I actually like this look better. I’ve now owned every x100 and the love affair just keeps growing with this camera.
This past July my daughter and I decided on a whim to take a trip to Tokyo for a few days. She was out of school for the summer and it was perfect for some quality father daughter time. It’s been two years since our last trip. Scary how fast time goes by. On my last trip to Tokyo I had just bought the x100T and was testing it out.
Hey everyone. Hope your all doing well today. I took this photo last year while testing my x100T that I had just upgraded to. The photo is part of a blog post I did on shop keepers in Naha. Click here to view that story. I love how he's surrounded with so much merchandise and yet everything looks in place.
Tsuken Island, also known as "carrot island" for it's shape is only about a 15 minute ferry ride from the main island of Okinawa. There's not much there really except farms and fisherman. In fact you can rent a bike and ride the island in a couple hours. This shot is from the port where the ferry drops you off. Hope everyone has a great day. Thanks for stopping by today.
Good morning everyone. It's another rainy day here in Okinawa. So far we've had far more rainy days than sunny days this year. I shot this a few years back with my Fuji x100 in the southern part of Okinawa. The waves were really small that day and I remember thinking how dedicated the local surfers were to go out even with little to no waves. I guess when you have a passion for something you can draw enjoyment from it even under less than perfect scenarios. I can totally relate.😊 Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
Happy Friday everyone. According to an article in the Ryukyu Shimpo, the first rice planting of the season has begun in Yaeyama. Reading the article made me think of this photo I took a couple years back with my Fuji X-Pro1 of a rice farmer near Onna, Okinawa working in his rice paddies. Thanks for stopping by today.
Ikei Island is a small island a short distance from the mail island of Okinawa. Unlike the main island, Ikei is still mostly undeveloped and is very popular with divers and sunbathers. On a recent drive there I saw this small fishing port and stopped to take a couple photos. The brightly colored buildings are what caught my eye, but I really loved the whole scene. Thanks for stopping by today.
Today's photo is a beautiful scene from the coastline of Kin Village in Okinawa. I never tire of views like this here in Okinawa. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
Okinawa is known for beautiful beaches and ocean views. I took this photo of Araha, Beach in Chatan, Okinawa with my iPhone 6s Plus. In the distance you can see the Ferris wheel from American Village. Thanks for stopping by today.
A food vendor at a local festival cooks Takoyaki (dumplings with a chunk of octopus inside). This shot was taken with my Fuji X-Pro1 and the 56mm f/1.2 (85mm equivalent), an awesome low light lens.
Today's photo was taken with my iPhone 6s Plus at Naminoue Beach in Naha, Okinawa. It's strange to me to see a beach right in the city with a highway running over it. Thanks for stopping by today.
