Thanks Rupert, We don’t normally get country music down here but there is a big calling for it in Ireland, so do get to listen to it from time to time...

We are more into sea shanties down here.

Some camera based presents.

Oh and the tool these were taken on (sadly taken on a sub standard camera phone....)

Merry Christmas!

Cheers, Steve

Nice gifts! I'm really looking forward to your X30 shots...don't forget the Toy Camera thread!

That is a catchy tune you posted.....I'll post this one last one...sort of the "National Anthem of Texas"

You Tube

People have a huge misconception of Texas, and people like me don't help any by hyping up the stereotyping. Actually, Texas is about the most diverse place I know of, both with people and geographically.

Regards!

I suspect Cornwall and Texas are quite similar!

This is our “national anthem”

Cheers, Steve

Skank, for my youngest son, a Texas Aggie, this is the National Song of the whole world! Don't know if you know much about Texas Aggies over there, but here they are the most rabid supporters of their University of anyone on earth.....Notre Dame has nothing on Aggies!

You Tube

Imagine what it is like in a stadium of 105,000 yelling Aggies when the famous Aggie band marches on the field and plays their fight song! The whole place shakes and quivers.....been there many times when he was in college....a ton of my money is still there!

I'll stop here...we are drifting away from the topic of Fuji cameras...but a little fun once in a while doesn't hurt, does it!

Best Regards!

Well I’ve bought the XF60mm in the January sales, not the most loved lenses by the “Pros" but I want to do a little macro and can’t afford the Zeiss optics!
Was a good deal anyway for the UK, £130 off bringing it down to UK 2nd hand prices and then I can still claim the £100 cashback.

Cheers, Steve

Skank-----I look forward to seeing what you can do with that macro lens. I had a great Kiron 105 macro I sold last Spring....in fact I sold a lot of great glass in anticipation of going more Toy Camera, but still haven't found anything to buy to replace my X20 that appeals. The X30 might, but it is just too close to what I already have.
Hope you have a fantastic 2015, keep posting, I have really enjoyed your shots in the past year!

Best Regards!

Rupert

I will kick of 2015 with a photo from my XF60.

Also some X30 fun in London, here is a link to the album, I have already posted in the toy camera thread.

She is so lovely! I bet she is a handful though!

I'm liking what I see from your X30...as much as what I see from your X-Pro, really. I saw those in the Toy Camera thread, very nice shooting...I sure hope you will post your X30 shots there with regularity!

Every time I see your daughter I think of my little Allee when she was about that age.....I never had a daughter but Allee was close. I know all about the temperament at that age....
Lovely when all goes their way...

Not so much when it doesn't!

Best Regards!

skankin_giant · 01-04-2015, 02:25 AM

You Allee is a lovely girl also, I think our Caitriona has my wife temperament.... Fiery Irish! Us Cornish are much more easy going.....

Cheers, Steve

Interesting shots there Steve. Great color and very atmospheric.

Thanks Jacquot, I quite enjoyed the night time photos, now all I need is a big flash so I can capture the moon as well as the boats......

Long exposure and cold weather sure kills the batteries, got through 2 batteries in less then 200 shots!

I had a play last night with a couple of them...

I think I prefer the colour version of this shot.

Bloody Seagulls landing halfway through a 20 sec exposure, or is it a ghost seagull!?

Cheers, Steve

Neat shots Skank, atmospheric is the word.....I agree. Color is the best, also agree. Love the first one, it makes you study it more than once.

My shots have little "artistic" value.....but they have great taste!

X20

Regards!

Really good shots - i really like the first one.
And the seagull in the second one makes a good "ghost story"
