Fuji x100F w/ TCL-x100 Teleconverter

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.

Streets of Tokyo with the Fuji x100F

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.

Photo of the Day - Waiting for a customer.

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.

Maeda Point

Been a while since I posted.  Thought I would post a couple photos from a recent trip out to Maeda Point, a popular snorkeling and diving location here in Okinawa.   This is a small beach about a hundred meters to the left of the main entrance.  I never grow tired of scenes like this.

Miso Ramen ...

One of my favorite foods here in Okinawa is Miso Ramen.   It's great in the winter to warm you up although I enjoy it year round.

A common sight here in Japan. I'm always amazed at how comfortable the person on the back looks.

Weekend Getaway

Spent a few days with the family at Okuma Resort in Kunigami Prefecture.  We try to get up there a few times per year and we are never disappointed with our stay.
