Me too! such a great lens!!!!

Hi folks, Before starting the trip driving my car up north in Spain, I obviously had to think about what gear I should take with me. My goal was clear: I wanted to shoot original landscapes in the north coast of Spain, specifically in the province of Asturias. Nowadays I am a Fujifilm photographer, which means two things: firstly, I am highly proud of owning a Fujifilm gear, which is outstanding in terms of quality and shooting experience, and furthermore because I’m in love with the quality and design of my FUJIFILM XT-2 and my lenses too. I knew I would mostly shoot landscapes, so before going up north to Asturias, I took a good decision: I sold my small and sweet pancake Samyang 12mm f/2 and then, I bought the legendary FUJI XF10-24MM F/4, and yes, it was a great. The XF10-24mm is more convenient for landscape photography; the focal range helps to reach far scenes where it’s impossible to get with a prime 12mm lens; for example shooting rocks in the water during a high tide.

Hi folks, Last weekend I picked up my Fuji XT-2 and the Samyang 12mm and I went to this place: Hoces del Río Duratón Natural Park. If I had to choose one of the most beautiful nature spots in Spain, doubtlessly I would recommend visiting Hoces Del Río Duratón Natural Park in Segovia, which it is located about 1 hour and 30 minutes driving distance from Madrid...

If I had to resume my travel to India and Nepal in one word, it would be intense... The purpose of the trip was simple: On one hand, I wanted to meet those amazing countries, discover their most beautiful places, and learn about their cultures. On the other hand, I wanted to carry out a personal photography project. Yes, I had been cooking a project in my mind for a couple of months: I wanted to take pictures of scenes from everyday life of local people. The great photojournalist STEVE MCCURRY has been a great inspiration for me. I coincide with his perspective and style of shooting pictures. I like to observe unknowns walking on the streets while I am composing a photograph in my mind. I normally have a previous idea of what I want to do, so I just have to find the location of the right place, and then just wait for picturesque people to carry out my plan. Before departing to Asia from Spain, I had to choose the photography gear for this trip. Fortunately, I was already aware about not taking too much weight as I would be backpacking Asia alone for a month, and believe me or not, when you are backpacking it’s very important to feel comfortable and agile. So I finally decided to pick up my two favorite Fuji lenses for traveling: the XF16MM F1.4 R WR and the XF35MM F1.4 R. Both lenses attached are my favorite combo to cover all the photography needs and face any photography challenge a long this trip. My camera is the FUJI XT-1, so I already knew that all my photography needs would be totally covered.

Hi folks, Yesterday I've spent the whole morning looking for picturesque everyday scenes on the streets of Madrid. Fortunately I found interesting scenes to shoot: pedestrians, homeless, jugglers or mime street artists have defined the following photographic serie. I used the XT-1 + XF35mm f/1.4 R. I am always happy with this combo, enough for street photography. Perhaps the 23mm would be useful too, but I don't have it and it's always uncomfortable to change lenses while walking.
