Sorry about that, Sherelene took a weeks vacation and decided it was time to catch up on the Honey Do list, NO VACATION!  I’m still sore!  Anyway just have a number of things  I’ve been thinking about and wanted to bring to your attention!

 

 

Number One:  I’ve now been using the Fuji 100-400 f 4.5-5.6 zoom for several months and I continue to find it amazing.   It’s amazing because it is so reasonably priced, considering what it is and what it can do.  If you shoot a Fujifilm X Body this lens gives you a fast focusing, extremely stable, (thanks to the extraordinary Optical Image Stabilization, 150mm to 600 mm equiv. lens!!!!   I’m 70 years old and hand holding used to be out of the question, I’ve gotten extremely sharp results at 600mm at 1/60th of a second!  I know younger, steadier photographers that have done it at a 1/15th!!!!  This a seriously high end performing lens for anyone needing to really reach out, want to know something even more amazing, it maintains extreme sharpness with both the Fuji 1.4 and 2 X tele-converters, that’s just sick!!!!

 

 

Number Two:  The new schedule for His Light and Jack Graham Photo Workshops and the Fuji Workshops is now posted on the Workshop blog and on Jack’s website.  Take look and find one to joins on!

 

 

 

 

 

Number Three:  I will be in Seattle Thursday night for the big West Coast kick off of the X-T2.  I was supposed to be in New York a week ago but got sick and could’t get there, better now, looking forward to seeing everyone and Jack at this next event, Jack and I are two of the three X-Photographers speaking at the event!

 

 

Number Four:   My Jay Masiel shot for this month!  Thanks Jay for inspiring all of us!

 

Blessings to all,
